Abrams twirl no-hit, norun game for the the Britisher would drop tong enough for the finish. Praise for Leonard must be only slightly stronger than for Welsh. The old man of the ring, undoubtedly realizing the end was in sight, did everything he knew to prevent the finish of his career as leader of the lightweight division. There was no denying, how- ever, the cool, calm youth who stabbed and crossed, always holding his right hand in readi- nese. The ninth round had been furiously fast when Leonard ted the whirlwind that brought the champion down. Crossing for the head, Weish started into a clinch. Using right hand almost for the time in the bout, Leonard crept behind the champion’s guard. Welsh ducked, but he was too late. The smashing power of the mauling fist caught him on the temple.

Weaving faintly, and try ing to hold up, Welsh sagged until his knees touched the floor Referee “Kid” McPartland started to count, and Welsh arose. Again he went down, one hand clinging to the ropes, in Leonard's corner. He arose, both hands on the ropes, his head unprotected. A dozen times the flailing fists of the eager challenger crashed into Welsh’s chin, Gamely the Britisher stood it. McPartiand looked appealingly into Welsh’s corner, but the sponge was not forthcoming. McPartiand mercifully stepped in and ended it Welsh, given a hand by the referee, tried to reach his corner, but he sprawled and fell thru the ropes. A wave of black, flecked with the yellow of straw hats, leaped into the smoke-filled ai as the crowd acclaimed another American lightweight cham pion of the world. Brushing aside special police men, the crowd surged into the ring, hugging and cheering Leonard. Welsh, sitting dazed in his corner, did not realize what had happened for several minutes.
