I'll gool everybody again, but In a different way from the night I lost to Braddock. I'll flatten the guy like I flattened Max Schmellng and Frlmo Camera.

Baer weighs about 317 pounds. , He has five weeks to get about 10 extra pounds from hla waistline. He haa been hitting the big bag wtth terrific power, Puke Okeh. Doctors In Baltimore told him what to do for the only real Injury he suffered, a bruised knuckle on his left hand. He weara a special pad over It In training. He aay he feels no pain no mat ter how hard he hits. He will go to New York Friday to let the New Tork state athletic commission doc tors decide whether the fists are In shape. "Throw out the Braddock fight." Baer Insisted. "I simply mntle a fool of myself. I thought It wns a soft touch and I kidded myself. "The only thing I'm glad about 1a that a broken-down guy like Brad dock. who needed the dough, got the title. Everything turns out for the best. I'll flatten Louis, and then win the title back." .
