were waiting, would not let him talk.

Ten Rounds Isn’t Test of a Man, Says
Erne; Around the 15th and 18th
is Where Pace Tells
New York,—“The crop of present day
pugilists isn’t as good as that which
used to be harvested back in the old
days," remarked Frank Erne, once the
lightweight champion, and regarded by
many as one of the brainiest fighters
that ever donned the mitts.
“There are mighty few boxers and
even fetfer ring generals that there used
to be ten and twenty years ago. The
reason for that is the many ten-round
no-decision bouts that are being staged
in these days. Ten rounds is no test for
a man. It’s no hard Job for even a
mediocre fighter to last out ten rounds.
But when he has to go the route for 20
or 25 rounds that’s when the pace be
gins to tell —and that’s where general
ship and boxing ability comes In.

beeauso he was a great ring general.
The same is true of Tommy Ryan, Jim
Corbett and a bunch of the other old
timers. They were really brainy fight
ers men who didn’t depend upon their
strength, but upon their brains, and
upon the crafty ideas they figured
out while in the ring. It was a treat
to watch the old-timers. They used
science mixed with strength, whereas in
this day, science seems to be something
of a lost art and only exhibitions of
strength are displayed.
“Packy McFarland is the peer of all
boxers in the ring today. Ho is the
ot the old-lime generals. Lie is uh
brainy as any man that ever stepped
within the ropes, and he uses those
brains every moment of the time. Ills
brains, control h s feet and his hands.
Ills bra.n always is trying to figure out
the other fellow's plan, and Packy
usually doesn’t have to figure long be
fore he reaches his answer. Ami then
it’s a walkaway for Packy.
“One of the strangest things, In my
opinion, is the shortage of real fighters
in the present day. There is not a
hoary we ght who is In Corbett, Fitzsim
mons, Sharkey’s or Jeffries class when
they were in their prime. There isn’t
a real middleweight fighter in the game
today, although there are one or two
men who may develop into good fighters
some of these days.
“And there’s the same dearth of ma
ter.al in the lightweight class. Ritchie,
of course, stands above the rest, but
after Ritchie there are few fighters who
can now be ranked in tho first class.
“But it was different in my day|
Then there were at least a dozezn as
pirants for the lightweight title who
wore as good- probably better —than any
present (lay lightweight. When I was
in my prime there were such men as
Dal Hawkins, Kid Lavlgne, Jack 1>;«
Klbows McFadden, .100 Cans, Young
firiffo, Oscar Gardner. J m Handler,
Kddle Conley, Kid McPartland, Jack
Kvorhardt and a bunch of others who
We*re ranked In the first class —ranked as
men who could give the champion a
battle of the kind to set tho crowd wild
with delight.
“In my opinion. Joe Cans was the
greatest fighter that ever was seen In
the lightweight division. He was a
Wonder. But Cans made the mistake of
bis life when he trained down to ISft
for Nelson. It weakened him so that
be was only a shadow of his former
Pelf, and Nelson won from him, Nelson
never was in Cans’ class and never
would have had a chance with him ts
Joe hadn’t weakened himself too much
for Ills first fight, and then hadn’t been
broken down physically when he tackled
Nelson for tho second time."
