om with Billy Mlske at Benton Harbor
September 6. 1920. and one with Rill
Tlrennan at Madison Square Garden De
cember 14. 1920. The champion stopped
v'isko In three rounds and brought
Br man down for the full count In the
twelfth.
A Me from thmo two bouts Dempsey
has done little in two years, *x -opt p0fl?
f'.r moving pictures and appear in a
vac levllle art. neither of which is , ,i
cul ited to Inculcate stamina, although
each has pleasing financial advantnges.
So far as the Mlske bout is concerned,
Dempsey appears to have performed in
a satisfactory manner, but in his contest
with Brennnn the champion's physical
condition and performance In the ring
were below par.
Me explained It by declnring that he
bad become stale through Mng continued
training. Whatever the cause. Denips. y's
ornlltlon and his efforts in the ring |
V ere very disappointing to those who
bud seen him In action at Toledo.
* 'cr another siege before the camera
on the coast, Dempsey returned East last
month and went to Freddie Welsh's
health farm to do the preliminary work
of conditioning for his battle with th.
Fr< ncliman.
t orn|>n rlsnn of Dorm.
A comparison of how Dempsey looked
be .,re he entered the ring with Wtltard
In 1919, and also how he looked when
he began light training at the Welsh
form possibly should be based on Demp
sey's appearance when he completes his
preparation for the Carpentler bout. Yet
his condition when he began to train
for Wlllard was Immeasurably superior
to his form as disclosed at Summit
few weeks ago.
