They simply run in and batter away until one or the other happens to stop one with his jaw.” The speaker was Kid McCoy, inventor of the “corkscrew” punch, and in his day one of the craftiest middleweights of the prize ring. “The trouble with the average modern boxer is that he DOES NOT THINK. “Think of a boxer who is so set in his ideas that he knows how to box in one way only—the crouch “Now, the fact is that the crouch wasn’t anything new when Jim Jeffries made it famous. Most all of us used it in the old days. I used it when I boxed Tommy Ryan. “But I didn’t box in @ crouch with every man I met Tt I had, one of those big fellows would have reached over and brought me to my knees with a whack on the back of the head. “L used the crouch when facing opponents against whom I thought it would be effective.
