Dane Proves He is Gans’s, Master by His Deci- | sive Victory. | ATTLING NELSON'S victory over Joe Gans \vas the most decisive on record. It wasn't) the result of one single punch. There fwas no shade of luck in the whole twenty-one rounds. Nelson simply went in and beat Gans down delib- ferately. There is no doubt that the Dane 1s the better man, or that he can whip Gans every time they meet. Nelson had his battle scientifically mapped out, and he didn’t vary his pro- jgramme for a second, Gans was by far ‘the more clever boxer and the harder fitter, But the Dane's plan of action loftset all of the black’s skill, Body punching beat Gans. In that itwenty-one rounds he took enough of a ‘beating around the nerve centres—the (polar plexus—to put fifty untrained men fn the hospital. Nelson has marvellous endurance and jability to assimilate punishment. Re! (ing on this he tore tnto Gans steadily trom the beginning of the fight, paying po attention to the negro’s blows, and| leentring his fire on the black man's stomach, This is a_ scientific a | \favored by all masters of the art of For centuries the world’s great- ‘est generals have won victories by hurl- ling attack after attack against the fenemy's centre, crushing it and disor- iganizing the whole opposing force. In jodern naval battles the fire of a fleet lls concentrated upon one opposing bat-/ itleship at a time, battering it to pieces v sheer weight of metal. | HIS was Nelson's scheme, He! picked out one spot, Gans's stom- ach, and beat at It steadily [round after round. The only time Nel- pon varied his attack at all was when | iGans covered his body with both arms ‘and forgot that he had a jaw. Then| felson whiped sudden blows over to the | \gaw, made Gans raise his guard, and) | instantly renewed the body fighting. Gans, a master of defense, tried his best to block those deadening body blows. They didn’t hurt much at the ltime, but he knew that each one af- fected his nerve centres and heiped to weaken him. Gans did block hundreds ‘ef them, but every one that slipped through his guard brought the Aight) nearer an end. That there wes nothing sudden or fluky about the knockout was shown by Gan own fighting. In the fifteenth, isixteenth and seventeenth rounds he ‘was fightng Nelson off and hammering) {fm his punches with plenty of steam be-| ‘hind them. After that he led less and) ‘eried harder to cover his battered body. In the twenty-first round Gans was so’ ‘weak and slow that he couldn't lead at all. Here Nelson tore in harder than ever, slamming terrible smashes into the ‘black mun body last Gans, | nearly paralyzed as a result of the pounding: was iaable to protect him Nelson landed at will and dellb- stately beat Lim down. Gans sunk to the floor was cons and he struggled hard to rise, But his nerves ‘were unable to, respond to his will, ing there on i . Ker just as well that he “dl Ly: d out, It was get up, for he was pped to 4 finish. | ELSON {s a champion among champlons—a man who would have given Lavigne or Emme or any of the old-timers the fight of their lives. There isn’t a lightweight in the ring to-day who could take the punishment Nelson handed out to Gans. He mu have landed, at a conservative e bic at least an average of twen to the round—four hundred blows or more during the fight. Gans landed nearly as many, but he was figh more than the body Joe Gans from now on will be one of the good second-raters, He 1 other good men, but Batt has his number As to the next battle should be with P.
