(The New York World), ZOQNEILL-ADAMSC Oz ILLIAM PAPKE, generally known as “Billy,” who was dorm at Spring Valley, Ill, on Sept. 14, 1886, fe the present and ffth holder of the title of middleweight champlonship of the world. Before going farther, I ‘wish to correct a statement which was made by me in Stanley Ketohel’s oa- eer. In one of the articles it was Stated that Papke and Ketchel were the same age, Stanley betng three days Bily’e senior, This ts incorrect. Papke was born on Sept. 14, 1886, and Ketchel on the 17th of the same month one year later, so that Papke lacked three days @f being one year Stanley's senior. There are, no doubt, many who will Gisagree with any statement that Papke fe the present world’s champion in hi Class, but if thoy will take the trouble to thoroughly investigate the case as I have done 1 think they will agree that the statement made above is borne out by the facts, Billy Papko won the middleweight championship of the world on the night of June 8 of th's year at the Palladium, Argyle street, Oxford Ctrous, London, W. And he gained the coveted by knooking out Jim Sullivan, the ac- knowledged middleweight champion of reat Britain, in the ninth round of @ ¥ nty-round battle In many respects the winner of this Dattle has @ more legitimate claim to the middleweight championship of the ‘world than had the late Stanley Ketoh In the present case Billy Papke, while ho the American champion, was en- f’‘led to first consideration in @ match involving the world’s title. He bad been or the space of two months the Amert oan champion. He had been the last man to battle with Ketchel for middleweight honors. He was the ac- knowledged peer of the present Amert- can middieweights. All these things entitled him to first place in any plans for a vontest to decide the possession ef the middleweight crown. Not Title Battles. As far as his defeat by Dave Smith fn Australia é* concerned, it ts ac- knowledged that this battle was not for middleweight honors. Subsequently the loss of this battle on a foul was wiped out by Papke when he defeated Smith in seven rounds at their second meeting. The majority of the objec- tions against conceding Papke the title of champion are based on the loss of a decision in Austrailia this spring et the hands of another American, clone Johnny” Thompson, in @ twenty-round battle. This fight was not for the world's tile, being at catchweights. But to return to the comparison of the battle at Colma on Nov. 26, 1908, be- tween Ketchel and Papke, and the one at London on the 8th of last June between Papke and Sullivan, If the winner of that battle at Colma was ac- knowledged be middlewelght cham- | pion of the world, as he was, then I can| gee no less 1 for awarding the| son honors to Papke for his victory in the| London bat! In the former case Stanley Ketchel, an ex-American cham- pion, fought with Billy Papke, the then! Amertcan champion, ‘There was no) meeting gf international fighters, one or both of hom were champions, Both | ‘were native sons. It had no parallel in the oase of MoCoy and Creedon, where an American and an Australian, neither one « holder of a championship, fought, as the foremost reprasentatives of their respective countries, for a title left vacany by the withdrawal from the mid-| dieweight ranks of the last champlon, | Bob Fitzsimmons, Neither was it like| the battle between Fitzsimmons and| Jack Dempsey. In that case Bob Fita- @immons fought and defeated the undis- puted middiewelght champion of the world, and acquired the title, Neverthe: | less, Stanley Ketehel, by his defeat of Billy Papke, at Colma on th 108, afternoon was hatled as the un- England has one weight for the middle- fandard take precedence ove: the oth: ers, it is England. England has eet the standards in sports for every other Engtieh-speaking country. The Amert- cana have adopted them in the main, making some changes. England has furnished the rules of horse racing, the rules of cricket, the rules of golf, the rules of rowing, our football, wrestling and every other branch of sport except baseball, which is essen- tially an American game of wholly American origin. granted her in these branches, why not in boxing? @he gave ue the Marquis of Queenwherry rules, upon which mod- ern prise-fighting stands, A Question of Weights. As @ matter of fact, in the present state of affairs each country is entitled to sett horeelf. rules make no mention of the weights. This hes teft each country free to fix {ts own weights. America adopted the ol4 Lonéon Prize Ring middlweight standard—164 raised the welght until it now stands at 168 pounds, But there is no more rea- eon why America should object to Eng- Jand having the 160-pound standard than there would be for England to object to our 168-pound standard. For that mat ter, Australia can claim, with just much resson, that her standard should be recognised universally. This question of weights and cham- pionships will always continue to be in @ state of senseless confusion unt!l the representatives of the leading countries in boxing get together and adopt a prac- ticable set of laws on boxing which sha!) eet forth In clear and unambiguous language the qualifications and require- ments of the different classes of boxers and of the champions therein. And un- til these oountries—Bngland, America, France, Australia and Canada et pres- ent—take effective steps to put the boz- ing game on @ firm and all the other branches of sport, there will continue to be the inexcusable, mis- leading and senseless confusion and diversity of opinion.
