PNNY LEONARD has defended bis title under the law governing the | lightweight championship for the first tinfe since he won it from H Freddy Welsh, and he had no easy time of it. The question now | arising in the pugilistic world is: How often can he do it again under | the same conditions? It 1s pointed out that in defeating Welling, Benny finished pretty nearly all in himself. Up to the eleventh round he hit | Welling hard and often and without any visible effect on the challenger, and he was annoyed, to say the least, | If there is one thing that discour- ages most fighters it is to land with the best they have in stock and then e. Welling did this often after Benny had hooked his well timed Jeft to the laughed after hitting Joe|bard, Dut, and finally one day satisfled them- | selves thatit could be done, It was just about this time that Gibson told the world that Benny was a light- weight, that he would post $10,000 forfeit in a match to prove it, and challenged any and all contqpders, a HE Welling bout was the result, | Lew Tender and Willie Jack- | son “ducking the issue. Now| that this bout is over and Leonard | having done what @e set out to do, will he or can he stand the test again? Will he fail back into fighting no- decision affairs at cutchweights and take on weight which will require arduous training to take off again? The questions are doubted and, accordingly, this is.a good thing. It may smoke out some of the other con- tenders who, after seeing the limit to which Leonard was extended to beat Welling, may now be willing to take @ chance with him themselves. Willie, Jackson is quietly letting it be known that he will take on Leonard as soon as possible, but we doubt that on gen- eral principles; but Johnny Dundee is ‘all excited over his chance with Benny. He is proclaiming himself even now as ‘the next lightweight champion. “I've fought Leonard about eight times and never cared what he weighed,” he says, “He never could hurt me, and can you imagine what I can do to him when he is compelled to get on the old scales?” Dundee was reminded that he first has to beat Jackson-(and they fight to-njght, by the way, at the Manhat- | tan Casino, 155th Street and Eighth Avenue), but his comeback to this ‘Oh, I'll beat him, all right. He knocked me out once with a fluke first-round punch, but ['ve licked him every time since. Why, If I was in that ring with Leonard ‘Friday night Ta a-hit him so many times he'd a-been dizzy before the tenth round. I'm your next champion sure, [ can feel it in my bones. ‘The Jackson-Dundee bout is one of more than passing interest. Rivals of the bitterest sort, they go into the ring trying to annihilate each other. ‘This time they are boxing to a dec!- sion, and the use of the old quotation that “the fur will fly” Is about the ‘best way of expressing what will ‘happen the second the gong sends them on their way. 1 Wise WES coun eT SOHE EXCTES Ment oT he we ee ony ae “IT WAS & FRIENOLY \MTER- SERMICE AFFAIR.
