Brother of Great Fighter Meets
Ridicule and Opposition of
Fans by Sticking and Work.
Uy HENRT L. FA ItltKLL,
(United Press Stuff Correspondent.)
NEW YORK, Auk. 5. After ono of
the hardest struggles a boxer ever en
countered, Tommy Gibbons, the Ht.
Paul light weight, la Just one rung
below the top.
Those who know him ure sure that
ho will take the next step to a cham
pionship when he meets Georges tr
pcntler in October. . .
Many of tliooo who know liirn feel
sure thut some day lie will wear the
heuvywelght crown not soon maybe,
bu tome day. .
Gibbons deserves a championship If
ever a boxer merited one. His rise
from the handicap of being merely a,
great brother's brother has been one
continuation of trials.
For some strange reason a certain
clomcnt of the boxing crowd refused
to entertain tho Ht. Paul boy seriously.
Itls to his everlasting credit that he
did not have the support of thut fac
tion. ' . '
tYwUt. formal! .l)J;j.,Jetorles was ta-,
ken away with tho clulm that he was
a hot-house plant -being nurtured on
"net-lips.' '
They camped on his trail Incessant
ly and ridiculed him, charging lilm
with everything Bhort of crime.
But he finally got there.
t
At first the knockers said he was u
good boxer, but lucked a punch. Then
he developed a punch bv scientific
study that got him thirteen short
knockouts in a row. This even failed
to convince his enemies. Even wlieii
he knocked out AVillic Median, a fiat
thut Jack Dempsey fulled to do three
times, ho got no credit. The cries of
a "set-up"' still persisted.
The writer knows that Tom Gibbons
never sought a "set-up" In his life,
and ho never held out for u big purse.
Ho tried to get AI Roberts, and failed.
Churloy AVeincrt ran away from him.
Flnully he got Lurry Williams, a big
lough lellow, and he got JS00 for
knocking him out when the poorest
boxers in New York were getting three
and four thousand dollars from Tex
Rlckard.
Tom then signed a contract to meet
any opponent th promoters could get
for bin fop a fifteen round bout at
Ebbet's Field. The promoters wired
him to write the name of Hartley
Madden In the Contract When he
arrived in New York ho found that
Madden would not slgn'and that Jack
Clifford, u, sparring purtner of the
champion, hud been secured. He bad
to meet Clifford, und he knocked him
out.
Bill Biennun wanted S4u,vub to
meet any opponent the promoters
could get for him for a fifteen-round
bout at Ebbet's Field. The promoters
wired him to write the numc of Bart
ley Madden in the contract. When he
arrived In s'cw York he founaVthaL,
luddeii woufd nbt's'igif and'tmit Jack
Clifford, u sparring partner of the
chnntplnn. hml been secured. He had
llo meet Clifford, and" ho knocked h'm ,
out.
Bill Drennun wanted 45,01)0 to beet
the fit. Paul boy. l.eo Flynn frankly
admitted that iircnuun stood fur an
other bout with Dempsey und thut he
wanted big money if Uie Chicago boy
was to be knocked off.
The Carpentier-Gibbons mulch then
