FOREIGN BOXING
CLAIMED TO BE
IN DECAYED STATE
—
By DAVIO J. WALSH
NEW YORK, April 7—The class J
>1‘ boxing abroad has fallen to such
low estate that Freddie Welsh, passe'
these many years, has decided, after i
giving the field there the left to j
right, to return to England this sum
mer and win back the lightweight,
championship of Europe. Welsh
here after -a short tour of the old
made this statement upon his arrival,
country, supplementing the announce-:
ment with a few disparaging remarks1
upon the decadence of foreign box-!
ing.
Are Mediocre
According to Fred, med-iocri.y Is j
the -kindest term he can apply to[
the European champions, with the ex
cf-ption ol Jimnty Wilde, world's fly-,
weight title holder. Contrary to i
pir-ular impression, Wilde is in ex
cellent condition, lie declarer, and:
will! astound the populace when lie |
comes here within a few months to
fight Paacho Villa, the frantic Fili
pino.
"Jimmy has kept himself in splen- j
did condition," Welsh declared. “Hej
is not fat a.t all.
“1 told Wilde he was meeting a;
fast littfle llighter -in Villa and he I
replied:
- I'M be in condition. They think
the little Welshman is all in, but
I’ll hand them a surprise when I ;
meet Villa.’ ”
Speaking for himself, Welsh was
not reticent in declaring that busi
ness was excellent and would remain
30 as KMlfc as uit'ir a. ub'*' :
weight in England.
Wouldn’t Last
‘‘I saw the lightweight champion
of England box," he said. "His name
is Seaman Hall He met a fellow |
named Morgan in Cardiff. I know I j
can heat that champion. They asked i
me to come back in June to meet I
Hall and I will do Just that. The
reat of the field, Including Todd. Joe;
Beckett and the other champions, arej
about in the same class with Hail, i
They would not last long over here.”
Welsh must be shading 40 in agej
and has dune little or no actual i
fighting since Benny Leonard beat'
bim tor the 'world’s championship.
