Len Gaines,
Dupas Draw
Oakland, Calif. (U.R) Leon
ard Gaines, an unknown light
weight from Richmond, Calif.,
today found himself classed with
such contenders as Frankie Ryff
by Ralph Dupas as the disap
pointed New Orleans boxer
tried to recover from the shock
of being held to a draw by the
1-4 underdog.
Gaines, who has had 14 pro
fessional fights, was awarded a
draw with second-ranking Du
pas here last night and many
fans thought the California Ne
gro should have been given the
decision.
Dupas, who spent most of the
night on his bicycle, closed fast
enough In the njnth and tenth
rounds to have Referee Jack
Silver score the fight 55 1-2-54
1-2 in his favor. But Dupas lost
a point for hitting Gaines with
q a low right hand in the fifth
round and that dropped the final
Jly to 54 1-2-54 1-2.
"This guy is as tough as
Frankie Ryff and harder to hit
than Johnny Gonsalves," Dupas
said afterwards. "But I know I
won. However, there's nothing I
can do about Silver's decision."
However, Jack Griffin who
Is handling Dupas' managerial
affairs in this state blasted the
verdict as a hometown decision.
