Champion Willard’s Ring Record a Joke Beside Fulton's. RED FULTO: y fall down ot, @ job now and then, but taken ll around he looks more like a Deavyweight champion than any other fighter we've seen in a long time, Ful- Yon has knocked out @ lot of good men On the pest year. Willard’s ring record in a joke be ide Fulton's, Willard knocked out a} Ww good men. but there were many More who stayed the mit and a couple who took decisions over him Gunboat Smith beat Willard tn San Francisco. Fulton knocked the Gy ner out easily. Of course ft w @he old Gunner, for Smith had lont terrific wallop. But Bearcat McMahon took a de twiston from Willard too, and nig fore last Fulton knocked McMahon ot fn four rounds, McMahon probably wasn't any less of a fighter than when he moet Willard. Fulton, too, knocked out Sam Lang- ford, and did it in about a quarter of the time Willard needed to finish Jack Johnson. Th wasn't much to choose between the two black flehters Willard fought a decisioniess te rounds with Carl Morris, both making @ ridiculous showing. Fulton punched Morris's head off in their last fight and might have knocked him out if Morris hadn't taken to persistent fouling, apparently preferring to lose that way, Fulton is showing olass in every fight. When he beat McMahon he #hot in blows #0 fast that the Bearcat was able to land only four times in the four rounds, Quite different from McMahon's showing with Willard.
