DISGUSTED CROVU
VEGAS
Say Johnson-Flynh Fiasco
Poorest Fight Witnessed
v. - in Many Years. - j-
(rnltcfl Pr UwA Wlr.
East La Vegan, N. M., July 8 It
was a disgusted crowd of fight fans
v i that boarded trains for their .homes to
day after having witnessed ths John
, . son-FIynn heavyweight fight yesterday,
which- most of them characterized as
- the poorest excuse for a -prise fight they
had seen ln inany a day. . ,
Jim Flynn, the I'ueblo fireman, bat
. . tered and beaten at all Stages of ths
- 'contest, evidently atempted to force the
referee to give -Johnson the contest on
a foul".' Ifa "was"' repeatedly warned
i , against using foul tactics in putting
the champion, until Captain Fred For
' noff of the state mounted police jumped
- into the ring and stopped the battle.
Captain Fornoff said he did so because
It was no longer a "prize fight," hut
' had become a slaughter and a merely
brutal exhibition.
riynn Badly Battered,
' Today, as the result of the terrific
beating he received,. Fly.nn's nose was
broken, both eyes were black, his cheek
was laid open and his lips and both
ears were puffed up enormously. John
son, on the other hand, bore not a mark
of the so-called battle, with the excep-
. tlon of slightly puffed Hps, which he
, received when Flynn deliberately but
ted him In the mouth with his head.
Although Flynn declared, today that
he had been robbed, there were few who
witnessed the fight who paid any at
tention to his claims. The white man
did not venture down town during the
morntng, preferring to remain at hi
Montezuma Springs quarters until the
crowd of fans had dwindled.
- Johnson, on the other hand," was " the
picture of good humor and his "golden
smile' was very much in evidence.
"You know I have always fought on
the level," he told the United Press
, correspondent. "I have been accused of
having a yellow Btreak In numerous
fights, but I have never been guilty. I
have many times overlooked foul tac
tics of other fighters, but 1 cannot un
' demand why this feHow Flynn was
allowed to po on as long as he did
without being disqualified. I com
plained to the referee several times,
but there was nothing doing except
warnings until the police took the mat
ter Into their own hands."
Didn't Extend Self.
Johnson insisted that he had not had
to extend himself at any stage of the
fight, and that If it had not been for
Flyrin's foul tactics lie would not have
borne a single mark. The champion
spent the day packing up his effects
r preparatory to leaving for Chicago over
the Santa Fe at 11 tonight, accompanied
hy his wife and his entire staff of train
ers. The consensus of opinion here today
is tliajt It will be many years before a
heavyweight fighter is developed capa
ble of wresting the title from JohnsoU
Flynn made a foul and hopeless fight
almost from the start. As early as the
third round It was evident he had no
chance. In the sixth round Referee
Smith warned the white man, Btopplng
the contest to say that he would awaid
the decision to Johnson unless Flynn
stopped his butting tactics.
in the seventh, Watson Burns, John
son's chief trainer, loudly claimeJ a
foul, but Flynn continued to butt John
son in the same manner. Jack evidently
tried to 'Overlook the "dirty work," but
in the eighth round could stand It no
longer and appealed ,to the referee.
Smith again stopped the contest and
gave Flynn what he called final warn
ing. Splits Plynn's Ross.
Johnson seemed serious In the ninth
and sr4lt Flynn's nose wide open with a
vIcloUs" straight left jab about a minute
after the round began. The Pueblan,
angered by the blow, deliberately ran at
Johnson and hutted him In the mouth
three times. Before Smith could speak,
Fornoff jumped into the ring and
stopped the fight, and Smith tapped
Johnson on the back, awarding httn the

Busher . Gaddy- and Young Gregg

JACK CURJ.EY LOSES
$15,000 ON CONTEST
(United Pretw Lerfeed Wir.
Las Vegas, N. M., July 6. The fistic
fiasco whereby Jack Johnson retained
Ills heavyweight championship title by
defeating Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fire
man, cost Jack Curley, the promoter,
about $15,000. This Is the statement
made today by Curley, who says that
-this loss does not Include the $10,000
guarantee put up by the business men
of the city to bring the fight here.
"I paid JohnBon $31,000 yesterday
morning," Curley declared. "The gate
receipts of the fight will amount to ap
proximately $38,000. Every dollar of
the expenses of promoting the fight was
borne by myself personally, no one else
being Interested with me.
"The financial end was a complete
failure. I stand to lose about $15,000
of my own money, to say nothing of the
$10,000 put up by the business men of
Las Vegas."
