TUESDAY, APRIL 2 FIFFEEN-ROUND MAIN BOUT AT © STRAND ARENA CUPIANO AND GONZALEZ TRAINING HARD TO SHAPE UP FOR LONG GRIND TO- MORROW NIGHT By OSCAR L. MILIAN Alex Cupiano and Felix Gon- zalez, the pair of fighting war- riors who gave the boxing fans the thfill. of a lifetime several weeks ago in a bang-up scrap, will square off again at the Strand Arena Wednesday night to air their differences for once and for aJl. Gonzalez, hard at work at the Cuban Club gymnasium each aft- | ernoon, shaping up his left-hand sledge hammer punches on the sand bag, lives in hopes of put- ting awzy his opponent. But this is a hard task to accomplish by Gonzalez or any other light- weight for this Cupiano can take it as well as dish it out. | The Puerto Rican scrapper, by all indications, is taking the; fight seriously enough to dig in- to his pocket to pay~ sparring mates. In his workout yesterday afternoon he put away one col- ored sparring partner. afid bat- tered three more around the ring. He is expected to spa with Jack Hare this afternoon Hare is the Navy light-heavy- weight who fought Kid Tarzan last week. Gonzalez is doing glove work with Kid Tarzan, Chino Hernan- dez and Young Ernest at the Cuban Club gym. Felix looks even better than he did in his last engagement with Cupiano }but this does not mean that he| will have easy sailing against. Alex and if you fight fans wish to convinge yourselyes about the ability of these boxers drop around the gymnasiums where they are working out. some after- noon and you'd think they were training for a championship fight the way they punch at the sand bag, skip the rope, shadow box, and box, They will fight 15 rounds and the bout will prob- | ably go all the way to the end. If the fight ends in a knockout, Cupiano will not be on the los- ing end. In the main preliminary of six rounds, Battling Geech, the champion of Thomas street and the colored section of the city, meets a new and dangerous com- er in the person of Jack Johnson. Johnson is the’ most dangerous foe to meet Geech as yet and don’t be surprised if the Geech crown will be lifted Wednesday night, for this boy Johnson can hit, box and move around right smart. He will out-reach Geech by some few inches—and this |counts a lot when a good left-hand jab can be used. This is going to be a fight of plenty action as Geech does not intend to lose his prestige iv his section. Young Manuel Hancock will meet Chino Hernandez in a four- round preliminary bout that gives all indications of being fast and furious. Battling Pijuan (Bull Mon- tana) and Blondon Hancock will square off in another four-round- er. Pijuan made quite a hit when he defeated Manuel Han- cock some weeks'ago; now brother Blondon will take up the fight for Manuel and give Pijuan a chance to show what he really knows about boxing. ‘oyal will also 5 rvations can be all day today and tomor- row at the arena. take | THE KEY WEST CIFIZEN- i SI.
