He's done all that's been asked
Joe Waterman and Manager Jack
Tony Kahut Kept His Promise on Brother Joo
Speaking of Kahut, we're probably wasting words and space in
saying that should he get Lloyd Marshall tonight hell be taking the
longest stride up punch paradise of his career to date. Up to now Joe
has been biffing with the strictly so-so boys, some of whom weren't
even that good. Capri has handled him superbly and a better cer
pentering Job couldn't have been, done by the best sawdust makers
in Local 898. ': ;.. fv - - , ' !
It has often been vowed that promising; as brother Tony was
when he was doing most of the battling in the Kahut clan, young Joe
would some day put his big brother to shame. In fact when Tony left
for the navy a couple years ago he made a public departure from Cliff
Parker's emporium by promising that "Joe will take care of the fight
ing around here now keep an eye on him, he's better than I ever
thought Of being.". Tony kept bis promise all right. And the fine job
by Capri of managing his ring moves has helped Joe get to the point
where one more win will vault him into fistiana's blueblood class.
Washed Up if He Loses? Not
Also mentioned quite frequently and stemming from the Kahut
Marshall mix tonight, has been such as, "If Kahut loses hell be
washed up in Portland-he cant afford to lose this one, etc" We
think not It takes more than one beating from a topnotcher to hang
the finis sign on a potentially, great youngster. In fact it seems to us
more a case of eVerything-to-gain-iiot-much-to-lose for Kahut If he
beats Marshall, called by some the; "duration lightheavy champion",
heU have hit the wartime top. If he loses in a close one he'll still
have come near enough to the top to do himself thousands of dollars
worth of good.' And if he gets himself plastered badly, tales of "not
ready yet" or "overmatched" would suffice. He's still plenty young
ancThas a long way to go, you know. 4 ,
But one way or the other, the time Is ripe for an outing with
someone the' calibre of Marshall. The handiwork has been done so
well that even Madison Square Garden's Mike Jacobs has heard of
Joe, and that's good for any fighter. Some believe he has been fighting
nothing other than setups in the case of Leo "Th Lion" Turner it
came near being "upsets" so the .time Is here for; Joe to show if
- he now has or hasn't got what same Mike Jacobs might be vastly
interested in.
