NEW YORK, July 25. (By the
Associated Press.) Pre-battle
declarations of confidence were
isaued tonight by Eugene Criqui
and Johnny Dundee on the eve
of their 15-ronnd match for the
world's featherweight champion
ship at the .-Polo Grounds. They
follow: 7 1 1
Eugene Criqui: "I think I will
win in 10 rounds. Dundee may
keep away that long, but in that
time I will surely get to him.' I
saw Dundee fight Bernstein and I
thought he won. I will take no
chance on a decision, but will win
by a knockout. I never felt bet
ter or stronger. I am even better
than I was against Kilbane, for
I have bad more time to get used
to the climate and the conditions
here. One thing I want to have
you understand. I am not going
to 'take the title home and stay
there. I am coming back to Am
erica to meet the best men you
have. ik like to fight and want
to fight, and am ready to fight
just as often as you find a good
opponent."
Dundee: '-'I will beat Criqui.
No man my weight can win from
me. I never could ' get Benny
Leonard to make -weight for me
or go a decision at the title weight
so why should I fear Criqui. Out
door training has done wonder3
for me. I was never better, fast
er or stronger, : and best of all.
my hands are in great condition.
For a long time I had trouble
with my right hand, but it is as
good as ever now. ' I will not say
what I am going to do to Criqui.
or what round I will stop him in,
but I will say that I will beat
him.- I never had more : confi
dence. I hope he puts up a good
fight."; : r r ; . j .
