—— THE EVENING WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 ST PAUL VETERAN RECANINE CLASS OF MIDDLEWEIGHT ih Mike’s Peculiarly Shaped Head , and Style of Fighting Sel-) dom Seen—Important Bout | for Westerner Next Month. | By Robert Edgren. IK GIBBONS'S “come-baci has been developing graduaily until It has placed Mike right! among the top-notc+ra in the sport- | ing columns. Mike has conducted his campaign like a goneral and has de-| livered the goods in much better style | than anyone thought he would. It) isn’t often that an «Id-timer, out of dard competition for two or three years, comes back and shows all of; his former speed and skill. When you consider that Mike Gib-| bona showed his best fighting form} from six to eight ye.rs ago—in 1913-15 | —it's rather remarkabie that he is golng so well again, Nothing ox- plains !t except the fact that Mike's| fighting always was almost entirely a) matter of skill, and his pnuch only an} incident. As for ruggedness—Mike | never had it. He always was ex- tremely careful to avold being hit. Sometimes his caution, when against a@ hard hitting and aggressive fighter, ‘was so extreme tha: he was roasted for being “yellow.” Not that Mike | was yellow. It was bis phantom style! of fighting. i} Mike had brains. He fought to win, | and he never was the kind of a fighter that is called “a fighting fool.” It wasn't part of Mike's plan to be care-| less. But, wien he decided that he! could afford to stand ciose to his man) and give and take punches, no one | PANTE. GiBBeus MOCKED OUT WILL Lewis BY SHOONNG a PUNK THROURM WILLIE.

His Mike never was a great K. O. fight- er, yet he had a fairly good list of knockouts, and seemed able to flat- ten his opponents whenever he thought it nocessary, Mike was born in St. Paul, Minn., in 1888. He began fighting in 1908. He was twenty—that may be why he lasts so well. Mike didn’t start with @ long list of knockouts, like many famous boxera, but he won some bouts and went along without losing for a couple of years, when clover Jimmy Clabby trimmed him in ten rounds. Mike tells me he never promoters offered Mike knew there were so many boxing $15,000 to fight Mike, gloves in the world and that losing Jess Willard to act as referee. to Clabby was the best thing that (Capyright, ever happened to him, because it taught him the necessity of knowing gwomething about boxing.
