SIX HAVE LOST HEAVYWEIGHT
CHAMPIONSHIP CROWNS SINCE
DAYS OF JOHN L. SULLIVAN
SAN FRANCISCO. June 11—Should
Tommy Gibbon win from Jack Demp
sey in their fight -for the heavy
weight championship of the worltf at
Shelby, Mont., July 4. next, the heavy
weight crown will have passed eight
times in thirty-one years, with one
wearer taking it by default.
While many battles for the heavy
weight championship have been stag
ed during the last thirty-one years,
tho actual change of totlc has passed
In only the following lights.
Sullivan to Corbett. Corbett to Fitz
simmons; Fitzsimmons to Jeffries;
Jeffries to Burns by default; Burns to
Johnson, Johnson to Willard, Willard
•to Dempsey.
Janies J. Corbett wrested the crown
from tho brow of John L. Sullivan
at New Orleans on September 7.
1892, knocking the veteran out in
tho twenty-first round.
"Gentleman Jim" Corbett held the
title to the heavyweight champion
ship for five years, and then lost it
to Bob Fitzsimmons by a knockout
in the fourteenth round at Carson
City. Ncv., March 17. 1897.
The lanky Bob held the title for
only two years, being knocked out
by James J. Jeffries in the eleventh
■round at Conry Island, N. Y., June 9.
1899.
Jeffries retired and Tommy Burns
claimed the title by -default
Burns defended his claim against
Jack Johnson at Sydney, Australia,
On December 20, 1908, and was de
feated in the -fourteenth round by tho
colored fighter on a technical knock
out.
Jeffries wa3 dragged back from re
tirement in 1910 and met the col
ored champion at Reno, Nov.. July 4,
but failed to regain the crown. John
son knocked the former champion
out In the fifteenth round.
The next transfer was made on
-April 5, 19:15, at Havana, Cuba, whan
“Lll Arthur” was knocked out in the
twenty-sixth round by Je3.s Willard.
-Willard held the championship belt
for four years, but lost to Jack
Dempsey when tho latter knocked
him out In tho third round at Toledo,'
Ohio, on July 4, 1919.
While Dempsey has engaged in a
number of exhibition battles, he
has defended his title only three
times in four years, defeating Billy
Miske, three rounds; Bill Brennan,
twelve rounds, and George:? Carpen
ter, four rounds.
