FRANCISCO FITZGERALD 13
SAN FRANCICSCO. Cal., Pril 28-
Referee Eddy Graney declared Jimmy
Rritt the Winner of. one of le fastesrt
and best fifht ever seen In San Fran
cisco. WiU!e Fitzgerald, of Brooklyn,
was the man who put up the good con
tet against the ; California, wonder.
Britt was the cleverer and faster of
the two and landed two blows to Fitr
irerald's one. With the exception of
the last round, when Fitzgerald put the
Kan Francisco boy on his haunches
with a left swing to the jaw, Britfs su
Iieriority was manifest during the en
tire fight, jln the first round Fitzger
ald sent Britt down but the Californlan
was at no time distressed. He knew
exactly what he was domg and when
he got up, he started at Fitzgerald as if
the flgrhj had just commenced. The
gong, however, ended the round.
- Fitzgerald had the advantage of Britt
in height, reach and muscular develop
ment, but he was not nearlyThis equal
in speed or cleverness. Britt's. duck
ing of right and left swings constituted
some of the prettiest work ever seen
here. Britt devoted most of his at
tention to? Fitzgerald's stomach and
landed numerous left punches that took
the steam out of the Brooklyn boy.
Britt occasionally landed on Fitzger
hM's jaw, generally at the close of the
round, but neither man was apparently
.able to seriously punish the .other. Fitz
grald showed that he could punch
hard with either hand and could take
lots of punishment.
Britt demonstrated that he' Is one of
tno fastest, coolest and most scientific
men that hag ever appeared In the
ring. Fitzgerald, after the fight, admit
ted that the decision was a just one. He
said that he injured his right hand in
the second round when ' he knocked
Britt down and was unable to do effec
tive work! without injuring it in the re
mainder of the fight. He said he would
like a return match as he felt confident
that he could show that he was the
letter, m m of th two. He said Britt
was the, hardest man he ever met.
