Battling Nelson Intends to Fight Himself Into Condition in Or- der to Regain Title, but it Is| Doubtful if He'll Ever Be Any- where Near His Old Self. Copyright, 1911. by The Press Publishing Co. The New York World), AL MOORE is credited with a dect-| P sion over Battling Nelson in thelr tweive-round bout in Boston last night. But the despatches say that! felson was busy as @ bee ull the way, | shooting in body punches and indulging in his favorite style of infighting. When Bat was champion no one would Dave been seriously disturbed by the idea that a clever boxer could outpoint in twelve rounds. He never was a short distance fighter. Several good lit- | tle men made @ very good showing with | Nelson in short bouts, Abe Attell made him look ike a novice in @ aix-round bout down in Philadelphia, and at that time Nelson was unquestionably at his dest True, at the end of the sixth Ablo all in, He had punched Bat unt he arm weary, and Bat was still tearing after him. Considering that us © eix-round fight, Attell would have been entitled to the decision had any been Fendered, even though Nelson was muca te stronger of the two at the finish. Attell fought a fifteen-round draw with Bat in San Francisco, but a $19,000 Purse wouldn't have induced him to en- ter ring with the Dane in a twenty- round contest, Nelson himself always) claimed that he couldn't show his true | fig ing form unless he could calculate upon drawing his battle out to forty rounds, if necessary, and wearing his man down. Twonty-five rounds he con- sidered as short a fight as he cared to take on, although he did ocoasionally knock some good man out in eighteen or twenty, He knocked, Hanlon, Ca+ nole and Britt out in eighteen rounds, Gans in seventeen and twenty-one, 1 land in twenty-three. Of his very tew Victories in short fights the most sen tional were his knockouts of Youngs Corbett in nine and ten, and Corbett * already golng to pieces from the Bevis of diestpation, Stil, being outpointed by Pal Moore |i doesn't help Bat's waning reputation y much, or push him back up thet ladder.

An English moving picture firm has offered $25,000 for the privilege of taking and bandiing the filma.
