LAST ROUND FIGHTS T No finish was more spectacular S OF TITLE ARE THRILLERS HE final rounds of nearly all the great battles in.which.the heavy- weight title changed hands or in which the champions retained their honors wére replete with exciting incidents. than that in which the supposedly unbeatable Sullivan was slowly battered to the floor by the agile and clever Corbett in the twénty-first round. The result was so unexpected that_Sullivan’s adherents, who nad would retamn his title, could hardly This was followed a few years later by the Carson upset. in Which the foxy Fitzsimmons tricked the clever punch, in the fourteenth round. Al- though the astonished Corbett, who in the early rounds looked a winner all over, was not rendered unconscious by the blow. its force temporarily took away his breath and paralyzed his lower limbs. As he clutched vain- ly at the ring ropes for support, the timer was rolling off the seconds and counted the fatal ten. - ‘Corbett Full of Fight. Hardly had Siler dectared Fitz the winner when Corbett, recovering from the effects of the blow, made a dash across the ring and tried to strike the victor. He was restrained by the crowd that then filled the ring. In the second battle between Jef- fries and Fitzsimmons, on the coast, the spectators saw Fitz beat the boil- ermaker to a pulp for seven rounds. and then witnessed the thrilling cl max of a knockout of the Cornish- man in the eighth, when hé no longer could punch, owing to broken hands. The most pathetic scene of all was when Jeftries, failing to heed the les- son of experience, returned to the ring after five years of retirement and Wwas beaten by Johnson. Jeffries in the fifteenth round had been so ter- ribly punished that he hung over the ropes in a helpless condition. Rick- ard. promoter and referee, then Stopped the contest and declared Johnson the winner.’ Appended are descriptions of the last rounds of fa- mous battles for the heavyweight title: CORBETT-SULLIVAN. New Orleans, September 7, 1892. Round 21—Sullivan rushed. but Cor- bett stepped nimbly aside and smash- ed the bix fellow's sore and bleeding nose with both fists, causing the blood to flow in a torrent. Suilivan was bewildered and began to Show &ns of early collapse. Corbett, smil- ing like a schoolboy, hooked a right hander to the side of the head. Corbett steadied himself. He sent a hard right to the ear and followed with a terrific left to the jaw and Sul- livan sank helpless to the floor of the ring. He was not- unconscious, but was too exhausted to rise. The round lasted a little over a minute and a half. FITZSIMMONS-CORBETT. Carson City, Nev. March 17, 1897. Round_14—Corbett landed that left jab again on Fitz's head. Fitz coun- tered with a heavy right swing on Corbett's neck and he had Corbett going back for a few seconds. Fitz landed a staggering left hand on Corbett's stomach and Corbett went to his knees with a look of agony on his face. He tried to pull himself to his feet by clutching the ring ropes, but failed. The timekeeper called the seconds. “One, two, three, four, five, six, sev- en, eight, nine, ten” Then Corbett came to his fest and rushed to Fitz and endeavored to strike him. George Siler declared Fitzsimmons had won. JEFFRIES-FITZSIMMONS. Coney Island. June 9, 1899. Round 11—Fitz came up slowly, but assumed the aggressive. Jeff stood off, evidently waiting for a knock- out. They clinched three times. Com- ing to close quartérs, Jeff put two hard rights over Fitz's heart, .send- ing him back.- Then 'Jeff -sent “a straight left to the neck, which he followed with"a left to the <chest. Fitz crowded in. He tried his right for the jaw, but was short. He, how- wagered 5 to 1 that the champion believe their eyes. ever, succeeded in blocking the Cali- fornian’s return. Jeff then jabbed his left to the head and sent his right to the point of Fitz's jaw. Fitz went down for the full count. JEFFRIES-CORBETT. Coney Island. May 11, 1900 Round 23—After a couple of passes Jeft swung his right to Corbett’s jaw and rushed him to a neutral corner. At close quarters Corbett hooked the left twice to the face, segding the blood spurting again from Jeff's face. Jeff threw in two hard lefts to the body and sent the left again to Cor- bett’s face, forcing Corbett's head back. ‘Then Jeffries crowded Corbett to the ropes, and with a full swinging left smash- on the jaw sent Corbett rolling down and out. Corbett's head struck the floor heavily and he roll- ed over in a vain attempt to regain his feet. JEFFRIES-FITZSIMMONS. July 25, 1902. San Francisco. Round $—Bob stood up straight, feinting with his left and drawing Jeffries on. Jeffries smiled through his bloody features, ducking a left swing and landing a hard left on the ribs. Jeffries forced the fighting a this stage, crouching low and carry ing his right high and left far back. They rushed to a clinch. As Fitzsimmons stepped back he smiled and spoke to Jeffries, and be- fore he could get out of reach Jeffries quickly hooked'his left on the jaw and Fitz went down on his back, and before he could get up the. referee counted him out. JEFFRIES-CORBETT. August 14, 1903, San Francisco. Round 10—Jeffries stood straight up and came after his man without hesi- tation. Corbett seemed to be makin a waiting. fight. They exchanged lefts to the face and Jeffries made a vicious effort. Jeffries sent a left hook to the stomach and Corbett went down for nine seconds. He got up and received a left in the stomch and a right on the jaw. He went down, and after the ‘count of seven Tommy Ryan threw up the sponge. Corbett was suffering pain and a chair was brought for him. After a minuate’s rest he recovered, got up and shook hands with Jeffries. JEFFRIES-JOHNSON. July 4, 1910, Reno, Nev. Round 15—They rushed straight into a clinch. Johnson wriggled out of it and hooked a left to the jaw, Jeffries clinching promptly. Getting clear of his man again, Johnson whipped three lefts to the jaw and the boilermaker reeled. The negro, realizing that the end was near, rushed his man to a point near the ropes, and with a right on the jaw, followed by a left upper- cut, he knocked Jeffries down flat upon his back. The white man got up on: one knee and took a count of nine. As he struggled up Johnson was on top of him, piling in blow after blow and almost knocking Jef- fries out of the ring. This time the referee’s count was slower, and Jef- fries managed to crawl to his feet in a dazed and helpless condition. The timekeeper had counted him out. But nobody heard him.

Before the chamnion could recover his position Willard swung a smashing right which landed full on Johnson's stomach.

His eyes were glassy, only the whites being visible. At the count of ten Welsh turned and held up Willard's hand and a new champion replaced Johnson. who was still stretched on the floor of the ring. Time of round, 1.26. DEMPSEY-WILLARD. Toledo, Ohio. July 4, 1919. Third round—Dempsey sprang at the helpless champion with tigerish ferocity at the call to battle for the third round and plied him with a suc- cession of jaw-breaking uppercuts that brought the blood sputtering from the champion's mouth. Willard tot- tered about the ring, his face in a pitiful condition, covered with blood and bruises, while his great stomach Tose and fell like the billows on Mau- mee bay. This was conclusive proof that the champion’s wind was not in good condition. Following the uppercuts Dempsey hooked his left to the face, driving the chamnion about the ring in a help- Jess condition. Once again the chal- lenger's heavy exertions told on him and he sparred for time, which was heartily appreciated by the champion. Just before the minute's rest had elapred Jack Hample, one of Jess' Seconds, tossed a_towel from the champion’s corner into the ring as an open confession that Willard could fight no more and that Jack Dempsey was the new heavyweight champion of the world. As the towel fluttered down into the center of the ring there was a great roar of voices all over the mammoth arena acelaiming the new title holder. Hundreds of admirers of Dempsey went over the top into the ring in a frantic effort to con- gratulate the new puglistic title holder. One woman enthusiast managed to reach the new champion's corner and imprinted a_vigorous Kkiss on the champion's cheek. The conqueror and the conquered finally left the ring for their dressing rooms, the smiling Dempsey riding on the shoulders of his enthusiastic admirers, and the sad and mutilated Willard walking with the assistance of his faithful trainers.

Mrs. Brown's ideas of the stylish thing in belts, however, didn't coin- cide with Dempsey's, and he had her i remodel the red, white and blue belt she had made. 'As #rs. Brown planned it, the belt was to fasten with hooks and eyes, I the juncture being embellished with a red, white and blue rosette. Demp- sey asked her to remove the rosette, which he held was too fancy, and the hooks and eyes, which, he said, might dig into his flesh, and to lengthen the belt so it could be tied in a plain knot.
