Would Put Off Bout With Downey Until After Contest for World Title. | BY FAIR PLAY. EW YORK, August 14—It looks as though Luis Firpo will now settle down to training for his September 14 bout with Jack Dempsey. He has asked the Indianapolis promoters of his bout with Downey to postpone it until after the big battle, and, while this looks like a request, the chances all are that it is a statement. Perhaps Luis feels it is wise to begin to make some serious effort to get himseli into shape for the champion. Or, perhaps, he deems it bet ter to string out his set-ups—not use them up too fast. Having stow Weinert away, and, with Downey in line for the soporific sock, it is diffi- cult to select future victims who are not very good and yet good enough to draw a crowd.
