Mike Gibbons, a Welter Star,
Must Now Go Up to “Middle”
MIKE GIBBON’S might start
to worry a little. The St.
Paul man has cleaned up
about everything there Is in the
lean welterweight division and
from the looks of that depleted di
vision he will get less than noth
ing from further forages among
the 145-pounders.
Even though Mike may make
frantic claims that he is nothing
but a welterweight, he isn't so far
from being a real middleweight
and why not take a shot at some
of the pickings in that division?
The middles are not a desper
ately tough lot—most of them, that
is. If Mike is really the wonder
that his friends claim him to be
he could well afford to give away
a little weight to the stars of the
156-160-pound squad and depend
upon his class to carry through.
Why not? Others go out of their
classes and meet with success.
And Mike, they say, is one of the
real stars of the world.
Many Examples to Follow.
Why not emulate the example of
Abe Attell, Ad Wolgast, Tommy
Ryan, Bob Fitzsimmons, Sam
Langford, Joe Choynski and many,
many others that might be named
and take a chance? Class carried
those stars through and Mike
shouldn’t be afraid.
We read with considerable sur
prise the statement made by Bom
bardier Wells’ manager about Gib
bons. He says that Gibbons Is one
of the wonders of the world as a
boxer and that he could make a
monkey out of Eddie McGoorty.
Putting aside our opinion as to
whether an English manager of a
rather mediocre English heavy
weight should be permitted to
voice an idea on the subject, we’ll
say that until Gibbons has shown
that he Is in the class with second
rate middleweights we couldn’t
dope him up at all as a fit member
of the middleweight divisdon.
If Gibbons can make good as a
middleweight he would indeed be a
welcome addition to the time hon
ored Queensberry class made fa
mous originally by Jack Dempsey.
But he hasn’t been proved any
thing but a great welterweight
yet, and that, too. according to his
own statements, so why should the
Englishman make such a wild
statement '.’
Could Beat All England.
If this statement is true, Gibbons
indeed could whip all of England,
for McGoorty, during his two trips
to the other side, beat everything
they had anywhere near his weight.
Funny, but when the name of
Gibbons is mentioned the middle
THE \TLA\TA GEORGIAX AND NEWS WEDXESDAY, JULY 31.1915.
West ifight fans hark back to his
meeting in Milwaukee with Jimmy
Clabby. This was one of the very
worst battles ever perpetrated on
the Cream City fans, many of
whom started to leave the building
before the men were half through
with the ten rounds. And Gibbons
was generally blamed for the hor
rible showing that the meh made,
and further, many accused Mike
that night of dogging it consider
ably and not standing up manfully
to his guns.
Proves a Great Welter.
Be that as it may, Mike has yet
to be proved as a middleweight,
though he doubtless is one of the
world’s greatest welters. And fur
ther, he hasn't beaten anything
much so far because of the general
leanness of the welterweight divi
sion.
Personally, I think he would do
well battling among the middle
weights of the present day, but it
is idle to guess now that he could
whip this man or that one. He'll
have to show first that he can whip
some of the second raters before
he aspires to battles with the real
leaders of the class.
GENE PAULET SPRAINS
ANKLE; OUT TWO WEEKS
CHATTANOOGA. TENN.. July 31.
The pennant asplraflons of the Mobile
Gulls received a heavy blow yesterday
afternoon when Gene Paulet sprained
his ankle, falling over first base. His
injuries, jvhich necessitated Jacobson's
shift to first base, practically cost the
Gulls yesterday's game.
According to Dr. G. M. Ellis, the loca'
club physician, Paulet will be out sot
two weeks.
Campbell's arm is still sore, to make
matters worse.
