Then Wolgast opens like a flash and beats him to the punch. That's Wolgast’s system and he counts on it In all his fights to give him the chance to end the fight “That system may do for some boxers, but it won't work with me,” |says Welsh. “Wolgast seems to be lable to make all these fellows do just as he likes.
