BOXING.
[Australian & N.Z. Cable Association.] PALMERSTON NORTH, Feh. 27. In what was considered the best fight ever seen in the Dominion, Jamito gained the decision over Jansen in a fifteen-rounds contest on Saturday night. A feature of flu* contest was t-.e manner in which Jamito took terrific right punches on the chin and still remained on his feet. Any white man would surely have been battered into unconsciousness. Good judge’s expressed surprise at the referee’s decision in view of the Frenchman’s far cleaner work.
