Frank Moran, Who Will Fight Jack Johnson in Paris
The belief persists among sporting men that Moran wi'l whip Johnson
and lie hailed in a few weeks as the champion of the world. No one under
takes to say that he would have beaten the old Johnson who met Jeffries.
But Johnson has degraded since then. There is much doubt if he can get
back into his old form. He is already older than was John L. Sullivan when
Corbett beat him In New Orleans. While Moran is no Corbett, he is strong,
game and a very hard hitter. He is the l»est educated heavyweight the
ring has known since. Queensber.v boxing superseded the old London prize
ring methods. Ho is an intelligent fellow, and some persons fear not ugly
enough and rough enough to make a champion.
