Coneright, 1018. ty The Proce trutlishing Co, New York World) IGHTY MIKE GIBBONS and M Terrible Eddie McGoorty fid-| died through ten rounds at Madison Square Garden last night. It! ‘was as mild and innocuous a bout as ‘was ever put over on a palpitating Public by candidates for a champion- abip. | MeGoorty won, but he didn’t prove Rimeelf to be an Alexander of the} equared circle. Mike wouldn't let! dim. Toward the end only the agonizing thought that they had given up large | hunks of real money for their seats | kept the spectators awake. | The whole trouble was this: Mike ‘was a hare and McGoorty was no bulldog. Mike was frightened half out of Bis wits when he climbed into the ring, and he didri’t get over it, Eddie @tarted with confidence enough, but after fanning the air where Gibbons wasn't and finding it almost impos- sible to drive a glove past Mike's elbows when he could corner him, || he grew discouraged.

If Gibbons had fought me instead of running away and clinching I am certain the bout would have been more interesting.

Backed to the ropes a hundred times during the bout he contented Rimeelf with carefully covering. and Dlocking and ducking out of danger. Apparently the only longing tm Mike'n mind was for the pleasing sound of the. , dell at the end of the tenth round. It would have been a nice bout for the moving pictures. Once in a great while, after feinting for a week or two, Mike dabbed out a Night left. His ansfety to get away before Eddie could retaliate kept him frem putting much foap into the Punches. Toward the ert he d{d drive 71m, couple of hard right cross coun- ters or inside rights, beating McGoorty to the punch and showing that he could have done something if he hadn't been @o timid. T the start the boxing was very A fast and‘ clever. Only halt a dozen taps were landed in the {frat round, and the spectators waited Wor the second, hoping that the “sizing sup" was all dver and that there'd be real action. But there wasn't. McGoorty was the . He boxed carefully and picked of Mike's jabs with a quick si of bis open right glove. Now be rushed in quickly, Mike either float- att Sway or blocked the blows as fast as “they came. He gave a fine exhibition of fest footwork and clever defense. Rut he didn't do anything else, and the Spectators began to hoot. MéGoorty slammed over lefts and righty and rushed Mike to thé ropes ev- | ery minute-or so. It wan hard to gut through Mike's network of forearms and elbows. A few punches reached the mai. Each time he was hit Mike either jumped’ back _ feet or slipped in close with a that would make a clam fm ite shell look like a cafe side en- trailee on & warm Sunday afternoon. ‘This discouraged MoGoorty. He let up end boxed at long range, which was just what Mike wanted—the longer the bet- ter. In the lant three rounds Mike was very tired and the crowd hooted McGoorty for his lack of enthusiasm. Urged on by Jimmie Johnson, who constantly called out, “He can’t hurt you, Eddte,” McGoorty tried spasmodicaily to punch holes in Mike's guard. have tried to open an oyster with his finger nails, ast he tried, and Mike didn't mussed up a little in the| , when MoGoorty landed sev- « rights, and Mike @ counter or two. T'S a curious thing that these long- talked-of bouts usually are disa pointing. Both Gibons and McGoorty Were very careful to take no chance of losing reputation by the knockout route, Ase result they have both dropped to the bottom of the list as far as cham- plonships are concerned, at least in New York. The public paid over $23,000 to see them fight. If they met again to- morrow night they would draw atout 623, and that would de $22.99 too much. Gibbons has placed himself as a re- markably fast and clever boxer with- out @ heart. MoGoorty is a wonder if he can slip the right punch over in the frat round.

Tam sure I would have fought a much faster and a better fight if it had not been for the foul blow which MoGoorty landed on me while we were in a clinch on the ropes in the third round. That blow weakened me, for after that I could not seem to get started. I know that McGoorty did not mean to hit me foul and for that reason I would not allow my manager to claim a foul. Another thing which was a great handicap to me was my stom- ach. It went back of me after the third round, which was probably due to the fqu! blow.
