DOESN’T LIKE PUNISHMENT
Young Stribling, heavy-weight boxer, flies in his airplane, upside down at low altitude. If he was half as reckless in the ring he’d be a great fighter, says an American writer. Stribling is a puzzle to fight followers. He lias the build, the trained ability to fight, a great punch. He has knocked out has-beens and stick champions by the hundred. He has beaten a lot of very good light-heavy-weights. He has gone through more ring matches than any other man in the trade. Last year, for instance, he had 38 fights. A while ago he scored his 100th knock-out. He’s the knockout champion of the cane brakes. Eut read the list of his victims and there are very few names that you’ve seen in print before. However, he can fight, and lie can punch. His only trouble seems to be inability to fight when against a first-class man of known punching ability.
