Shelby yet." Picks Dempsey to Win Quickly Next Time Collins predicts that Dempsey will win by a knockout in less than four rounds if he fights Gibbons again. His reasons follow: “Gibbons was at the top of his form the day he fought Dempsey at Shelby,” says Collins. “He will nev. er be better, while Dempsey will sel dom be so bad. Tommy met Demp- sey at the best possible time for him- self and the worst for Dempsey, for years. His timing was bad and his punching wild. “Tam not one of those who thinks Dempsey did not try to finish Gib-| bons that day. You bet he tried. Not only tried, but almost succeeded. In the first round he clipped Gib- bons a terrible punch on the cheek- bone affd it nearly got Tommy. That first round clout was the hardest punch Dempsey landed—mighty few outside Tommy's own corner knew how it hurt him and how nearly it finished him, but he stuck out the round and made a great fight, tho he never had a chance to win. “Again in the fifth Dempsey hurt Gibbons badly, and his body punches churned Tommy all up. inside. He isn’t right yet, which is one reason he has not been in the ring since. “Next time they fight it will be Dempsey who has been having plen- ty of work, and whose timing is good, while Gibbons will be the must fighter, all out of practice. Tommy hasn't had a real contest since that day in Shelby. “Up to about midw: round, when Dempsey hit him that lick,” continues Collins, “Gibbotis ac- tually thought Dempsey couldn't fight—that he was just a big false alarm. But the punch ‘Dempsey janded disabused Tommy of that idea immediately. He knows how Demp- sey can fight now, and how difficult er. All this psychology will against Gibbons next time.
