AT THE BALL GAME
And All Stands—ln Bottles 5c
Mike Gibbons, a Welter Star,
Must Now Go Up to “Middle”
MIKE GIBBONS might start
to worry a little. The St. 1
Paul man has cleaned up 1
1 about everything there is in the '
I lean welterweight division and 1
. from the looks of that depleted di-
■ vision he will get less than noth- 1
‘ Ing- troop further forages among
: the 145-pounders.
Even though Mike may make 1
frantic claims that he is nothing 1 1
but a welterweight, he isn't so far 1
from being a real middleweight •
and why not take a shot at some 1
of the pickings in that division'.’
The middles are not a desper
ately tough lot—most of them, that 1
is. If Mike is really the wonder 1
that his friends claim him to be '
he could well afford to give away 1
a little weight to the stars of the 1
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 Atlell, Ad Wolgast, Tommy 1
Ryan. Rob Fitzsimmons. Sam i
Langford. Joe Choynski and many.
1 many others that might be named
and take a chance? Class carried
those stars through and Mike •
shouldn't be afraid. j
We read with considerable sur- •
prise tile statement made by Bom
bardier Wells' manager about Gib
bons. He says that Gibbons is one
; of the wonders of the world as a t„
boxer and that he could make a K.
monkey out. of Eddie MeGoarty.
Putting aside our opinion as to 1
whether an English manager of a *
athe- mediocre English Tteavy
wt ight 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 middle weights we couldn't
Tc
dope him up at all as a fit member b
of the middleweight division. Nt
If Gibbons can make good as a
middleweight he would indeed be a 1
: welcome addition to the time hon-
» ’
oreil Queensberry class made fa
mous originally by Jack Dempsey.
But he hasn’t been proved any- Q
thing but a great welterweight
yet, and that. too. according to his
own statements, so whv should the
- I
Englishman make such a wild -p
statement?
Could Beat All England. af l
hit
If this statement is true. Gibbons j n
) indeed could whip all of England. sh
i for McGoorty, duting his two trips Gt
lo the other side, beat everything
they had anywhere near his weight. tw
Funny. but when the name of ,
Gibbons is mentioned the middle mt

West fight fans hark back to his
meeting in Milwaukee with Jimmy
flabby. This was one of the very
worst battles ever perpetrated on
the Cream City fans, many of
whom started to leave the building
befote the men were half through
with the ten rounds. And Gibbons
was generally blamed for the hor
rible showing that .the men 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 welteis. And fur
ther, he hasn't beaten anything
much so far because of the genera’
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.
