COMMENTS ON THE BIG FIGHT
Tack Dempsey again retained the
world’s heavyweight championship
in his bout with Tommy Gibbons at
SkfcfLby. Montana, July 4th. All the
details of the light that were avail
able are given in another article of
this issue of the Nugget. Since the
fight there has been various reasons
advanced by fight fans of Nome on
why Dempsey did not knock Gibbons
[for a “small row of soup kitchens."
[Among some of the principal reasons
advanced by the local fans are the
following: Dempsey wanted to let
the bout go the limit in order to get
more money from the Movies, an
other, Dempsey after seeing that
tliSe was no danger of being
knocked out played with Gibbons to
give the crowd a run for their
money, and still. Gibbons was too
clever for Dempsey to pnt away,
and still yet, Dempsey has lost some
of the punch that he heretofore pos
sensed in his blows, and at last but
r.ot least, Dempsey did the best he
We are not experts In this manly
art of self defense but having
"pdshed the leather” a bli in the
past, a few comments on the fore
going reasons perhaps will not he
am^s. Firat take into considera
tion that Dempsey was to receive
three hundred thousand dollars for
the fight alone which he no doubt
did, with this amount of money at
stake and his reputation as a fighter
along with the possibility of other
bouts in the near future that will
possibly net him as much If not more
than this one. could Dempsey reason
ably be expected to willfully let the
fight go the limit and take a chance
on being the one that got knocked
for an "Eskimo high jump” himself,
we think not. And as far as Demp
scp’ seeing that there was no danger
in being the one who got Ko'ed, that
can not be. for Tommy Gibbons is
a«dangerous man at any time while
he is on his feet In the ring. Then
comes the dope that Tommy was
too clever for Dempsey. This may
be we do not intend to take sides as
long as we did not get to see the
dusting contest” and
Knowing the two men as we hap
pen to know them. Jack Kerns,
Dempsey’s manager, says: “Tommy
fought like a major using his head
all the way.” Dempsey’s conclusion
was that, either Tommy was capable
of taking all the punishment that
he (Dempsey) could give or that
thf blows that once had the power
to stop the other fellow had lost
some of their force.
Taking all the dope that came in
over the wires as it was, we are un
der the impression that Dempsey
did his best to stop Gibbons and
failed, which Is no discredit to the
Champion. So far Dempsey has
be^n an invincible champion- and a
good clean fighter let us give him
credit due.
