Bartfield is one of the most famous fighters in the country. Weighing but 148 pounds, he has given away as much as 20 pounds in weight to some of the best big men of the ring in this country, and has never once suf- fered a knockout. Bartfield is a fighter, and does not claim to be scien- tific. He swings wildly, but carries a kick in his punches when he does land. His method of fighting is to keep in fe top of his man all of the time and to take a punch to id one. Arena Card ~ How Coast | “Soldier” Bartfield va.
