But Jobn L. Sullivan was cham- Pion of the world. Every man who followed bim had clear title. When John L, first became prom!- ment as a fighter, which was in hi first year in the ring (1879), theve Wes no recognized champion of thal world. That title had been claimed Jem Mace and other English but Mace had retired, as the recognized American champion, Paddy Ryan of New York and Goss of England fought for the championship down in West Vir- ginia in 1880. Ryan won in eighty- ®even rounds gnd was recognized by sporting authorities as international heavyweight champion. o years later young John la succeeded in getting on a fight with Ryan at Mississippi City, Miss, It ‘was © desperate fight as far as it went, for Sullivan finished Ryan in mine rounds. There was a side stake ‘Of $5,000, and it was agreed that the title held by Ryan should go to the winner. Billy Madden went to Ireland and land to try to find a man to beat ivan, with whom he had quar- felled. He held a long tournament in different English cities, and at the Charlie Mitchell, a middleweight, easily disposed of all opponent Madden thought so well of Mitche! that he brought the “Boxing Cham- ion of England” over to fight Sul- ivan, Mitchell's first appearange caused much comment, for the sport- ing men had expected Madden to over a giant instead of a smooth-faced boy of medium height and weight. Tug Wilson of England met Sulli-| van first, but failed to put up much of a fight. He went down continu- ally without being hit, In 1883 Charlie Mitchell met Sulll- van at Madison Square Garden, Mit- ehell showed speed and skill that @mazed the spectators, and in the third round suddenly jabbed Sullivan in the stomach, catching him off bal- ance and putting him down on his haunches.

The fight slowed down until after thirty-ning rounds, when both men ‘were too weary to do any more exe- gution and it was etopped by mutual Consent and called a “draw.” livan had another international battle, with Herbert Slade, the Maori, ‘who was brought from New Zealand by Jem Mace.
