Walter because It is should be pointed out fls cause for believing Jess Willard will defeat Jack Dempsey. In the hlptory of pugilism there, have been several very large and powerful fighters who have been defeated by smaller men. It Isn't necessary to dig very far back to find instances. Dempsey himself furnished the rpcords with an episode of this sort when he gtrfttehed Carl Morris unconscious and ngnin when IIP fered the huge and ponderous Kulton in Newark In a single rounn. Many fight fans who believe Willard will win'declare he Is so adopt fit using his weight and his hands to shield himself that Dempsey never will be able tn reach him with those hammer blows.

They thought the same thing when Demysey met Fulton. There Is no man who can withstand a paralyzing blow on the point, of the chin. The knockout spot always Is there. 11 only requires a man to find it. Dempsey hits hard enough to foil anyone.

If ho hits Willard's chin the giant will faH. The same can be said for Dempsey. If Willard leans on his chin wfth that ham-like right, Jack will be licked right there.
