DUNDEE IS CERTAIN HE CAN BATT
LEONARD AND WIN ANOTHER CROWN
NEW YORK, Aug 15—Now that
Johnnie Dundee and Denny Leonard
have bee n hook, d up to battle for
fifteen lottnds at tlio Yankee Stadium
on September 5 boxing fans are do
ing a lot of speculating as to win
ther Dundee erred in selecting such
a tough opponent as the mighty
Leonard, so soon after taking unto
himself the f atherweight champion
ship. However, Dundee is the least
worried of them all and really be
lieves that th" champion of the
lightweight brigade was made to
order for him. Johnny and Benny
have met eight times without the
Italian suffering to any great ex
tent.
"I'd rather fight Leonard
other member of the park,'
feat herweiglit champion,
that he couldn't kno k me
stepped in with him every
the week. He's a great fighter, to
be sure, but I know he can't hurt
me. I am glad they got the cham
pion for me. Now watch me annex
Rather rash talk, you
I am on the level about
than any
' said the
"1 know j
out if I i
night in
resting for the pres
start in again soon on
at his home in
another title,
may say. but
It."
Dundee is
ent, blit will
his training stunts
West Orange.
If is understood there may be a
change in the date for the bout. The
fact that September 5 is just nine
dayr. before Jack Dempsey is to at
tend to Luis Eirpo here is bound to
have some effect on the "gate" of
both entertainments.

a lot of useless and heavy Impedi
