JOHNSON THE GREATEST NATURAL FIGHTER Uppercuts the Best in His Repertoire. Joe Gans, while he had all that Mace or Mace's adherents ever knew down to a fine point, resorted suffi- ciently to original notions of his own 1 to be classed as a naturar fighter, says Billy Phelon. A man wwuo keeps tally on ring happenings often hears refer- ence to a hurtful punch which trav- eled but comparatively few inches. Well, it would have been hard to lo- cate a ring man who required less range for some of his punches than Gans. Particularly was this true of a right chop which Gans used in many of his fights. He wene very guietly about preparing the way for a punch of this kind, just elevating his right glove gradually while sparring el he felt if topped his opponent’s guard. Then, without drawing his elbow back the fraction of an inch, he would a quick turn of the wrist and a do ward chug of his dexter glove, the resuit being a clip on the chin which jarred the receipient from truck to keelson. The greatest of all natural fighters, of course, is this fellow, Jack John- son, and the best things in his reper- toire are the uppercuts with which he times his men so fearfully and fault- | lessly. It was thought, after seeing the way he butchered fellows like Jim Flynn and Tommy Burns with his lifting punches, that he was only poison to !Fhol‘t men, but after that unfortunate | affair at Reno we knew the difference. Jeffries was looked on t6 crush and maul Johnson in the clinches, yet Jef- fries was licked in the clinches. ever before did a frequenter of prizefights see such damage inflicted at close quarters. There were the two big men swinging around in each other’'s arms, each supposedly bringing years of experience in ringmanship to bear to blanket the other and render him powerless. Yet one of the men—the black man, too—freed either hand whenever he felt like it apparently, and with an upward drive bruised and gashed the other’s face while you watched. And once—just one—when Jeffries tried to retaliate in like manner, the result was absolutely ludicrous. 1 am free to confess that I mnever before saw such infighting as Johnson engaged in, and I cannot conceive of any other heavyweight 1 know-—unless it be Sam Langford—copying John- son’s best licks with success.
