offered to let him have It all U I failed
to beat him, but Zurbrlck, not earing

six rounds for the ehamplonahlp at the

about a satisfactory agreement
between the managers of the two fight '

agreement Nelson will get 45 per emit
of the gate receipt. McOovern only 15.
per cent. - It la stipulated that both
contestants are to weigh IIS' pounds at

condition at first threatened to prevent .
an - agreement, - but- It-waa- finally - ao
