WILLARD AND FIRPO CONFIDENT
OF WINNING TONIGHT; FIGHTERS
MAKE STATEMENTS FOR PUBLIC
NEW YORK, July 12.—Jess Wil
lard In a statement today regarding
his bout tonight with Kirpo, said:
"1 am not over-confident but think
I can win. 1 have never seen Kirpo
fight but have been "told he is a
tough fellow and u hard hitter. But
I do not think them is anybody in
the ring who can take my measure
today."
Kirpo in a statement said:
"I know I can beat Willard. 1
watched him fight with Kloyd John
son two months ago at the same
show where I kayoed Jack McAul
iffe in the second round and I know
his style. I don't know how long
it will take me to win hut I hope
it will be early."
ACID TEST IN “COME-BACK.
JERSEY CITY, July 12.—Jess Wil
lard, when he meets Louis Kirpo at
Boyle’s Thirty Acres tonight, faces
the acid test in his “come-back" by
which he hopes to obtain a return
match with Dempsey.
Kirpo also faces the turning point
In one of the most sensational car
eers in ring history. Both lighters
are declared to be in the pink of
condition. Willard's forty years or
so seemed to weigh lightly on his
huge frame as he went through ills
final limbering up. Kirpo is trained
to the minute and has been con
verted by expert handling from a
primitive battler into a fighting ma
chine.
The advance sale of tickets has al-,
ready passed 35,000 with the indi
cations that it will be doubled be |
fore night.
