out hitter with cither hand In my opinion
Leonard Is speedier than Gans, Is a better
defensive bojtor (Gans seldom entered n
bout that ho was not hit bard nnd In trou
bio) nnd hits quite as effectively.
"Nelson and Wolgnst cannot be men
tioned In the same breath with Leonnrd.
Neither had anything except strength nnd
ability to tike punishment to commend
them, and their wild swings never would
liavo found lodgment on Leonard. Nelson's
defeat of Gans was duo entirely to tho fnct
that tho champion wns forced to make n
weight at which It was lmposslblo for him
to tight with vigor.
"Gans was compelled to weigh with
trunks and Bhoes, and ho entered the ring
for his battles with Nelson nt 131Vd pounds.
If Nelson and Wolgnst at their best could
bo pitted ngalnst Leonard today the new
champion would mnke Bhort woik of them,
Ritchie Would Be Easy
"Wllllo Illtchle, In tho form he showed
when he was outpointed In twenty rounds
by Welsh, would bo decisively defeated by
Leonard In his present form.
"Of the non,tltlo holders Young Grlffo at
his best would have outpointed Leonard In
tho champion's best form.
"Jem Carney, tho British champion, who
decisively defeated Jack McAullfte, would
If ho could today enter tho ring In his form
of 1887, give Leonard a hard battle, London
rules.
"Leonard Is supremo because he com
bines In himself nearly all the good qual
ities of his predecessors and has none of
their faults.
"His defense is virtually Impregnable, his
offensive swift and destructive, his general
ship of the first rank, his coolness ley nnd
his confidence superb.
"It will be a long tlmo before Leonard's
superior Is developed, but in tho course of
tlmo It will como about. This Is evident
from his marked superiority over the cham
pions who preceded him,"
Some Historic Facts
While Kilbane Is being made tho fa
vorite over Leonard In many quarters, it
Is only an oven bet. Both are cicver, fast
and possess a slam that spells sleep. If
one or tho other happens to stand still Just
long enough for a punch to reach his chin,
then thero Is no doubt tljat tho bout will
termlnato decisively. If ICIlbauo Is to bo
tho one to do the knocking out, he will
como Into tho Joint possession of tho
fcatherwolght-llghtwelght championship.
Pugilistic history shows few Instances
when one boxer held more than ono title.
Bob Fltzslmmons held three crpwns during
his career in the ring middle, light heavy
and heavy.
Among othors who have held more than
ono tltlo was Terry McGovern, who wns
bantam and featherweight tltioholdor at
different times. Terry also knocked out
Erne, the lightweight champion of tho
world, but In a handicap match at 128
pounds ringside, nnd therefore did not be
come tho champion of that division.
Tommy Ryan was the holder of the
welter and middle titles nnd Gcorgo Dixon
was the tltleholder In tho bantam and
foathcr classes.
