San Francisco, Dec. 19. It is one of the axioms or tho fighting belt that "a good little man" wlU Invariably faU when he tries to lick "a good big man." Of course, good big men have been de feated by good little men In the past, but what is meant Is that, other things being equal, the heavier and bigger man pa the safer bet In a prize ring propo- auiuu. ln tli case of Sam I.angford and Jim Flynn, it is generally conceded that Langford Is the better fighter of the twain. He falls short of Flynn In weight and stature, but in this par ticular Instance the old warning seems to go unheeded. Langford Is a top heavy favorite and the average bettor seraa to have made up his mind that Flynn's advantages of bulk will not save him from a hammering. Flynn has a number of friends who believe that his steadfast courage, his ionanes ana spuiuae lor rast milling and his faculty of assimilating pun ishment will offset the negro's fighting Auuiiy, it is ven sussesiea msx jsng- rora, like others ban rrancisco has had taller than Langford. While It has not oeen orriciaiy announced, it Is believed that Flynn will have a dozen pounds leeway in the weights. In other re spects Langford does not suffer by any means when compared with his larger opponent. Langford is six years Flynn's junior and for every inch Flynn Is taller than Langford, the latter boasts an Inch more in girth than the man from Pueblo. In other words, Lang ford's driving machinery, which In cludes back muscles as well as depth of chest, tapes five Inches more than t lynn's and this carries with it the In ference that a punch from Langford will causes more damage than a punch from FlytWi: ( Flynn, who Is always a philosopher, Insists that the ability to take a punch counts for a little more than the ability to deliver one in modern pugilism. "It. doesn't .bother me to have some one tell me that Langford can hit harder than I can," said . the fireman the other day, "In. the first place that is something that has to be proved. What I'd like to know Is whether Lang ford can stand a punch better than I can. I don't think he can, and that's one of the things I am banking on to bring me home a winner." Preliminaries Exciting. It very often happens that a good preliminary Is overshadowed to an ex tent by the main event of a boxing show and this, in a large measure. " to be the way with the Jimmy Walsh-Monte Attell bout, which pre cedes the Flynn-Langford affair at tho Coliseum tomorrow night On onlv has to. recall -the work of these lltu'.i fellows In other matches, however, tn feel satisfied that - they will furnish exciting entertainment. From far Australia comes a big budget of news regarding th Jack Johnson-Tommy Burns world's cham pionship glove contest which - taken place at Sydney on Ute-nlav after Christ mas. -The Australians seem to think that - they triumphed over tho entiro world ; when they booked Johnson and the Canadian. One letter "from Australia says: i T ' "While -Johnson has plenty of sup porters In Australia, Burns wilt start favorite in the, fight and tho bent Judges here think he will win. He I Immensely popular - and his demeanor and fighting have made him the idol of the sporting public. The idea of his ever having- been afraid to meet Johnson Is absolutely scouted, and it Is thought no one could be keener for the fray than Burns. He is remarkably confident, as also is Johnson and a. great contest Is anticipated." to do with, may prove less of a fire eater than he Is thought to be; that he may possess the timid streak which causes a man to wilt In the face of neartoreaxing ring work. Anyhow. Flynn. with nis known gameness and his proved capacity for hard usage, s not regarded as a forlorn hope alto gether. The pikers are fingering their oia; Buyer aouarq ana are awaiting a chance to Invest on Flynn at the best ooiainaoio ooas. Comparison of Fighters.
