WU b out shortly Tommy Burns. the heavyweight champion pugilist of the world (with Jeffries in retirement and Jack Johnson looking for a chance to fight for this title), has made $80,000 since he first entered the prize ring in 1900. Burns incidentally has picked up more soft money than any of the previous champions in his class. In srranglng his matches he does not require the services of a manager, who, in his opin ion, would be simply so much extra and unnecessary expense. Burns is lucky, if for no other reason than the fact tit nowadays there are few reallv rnnrl heavyweights Jn the ring.
