BOXING.
LES GLEESON EAGER. FOR ANOTHER BOUT. Les Gleeson writes: — A line to let your readers know I would like to box Whitaker again and have a backer with £5O to see how I can lick him if he will stand and fight. Although he has it on me in height, and reach. I think that in a return match I could heal him. as I would be in better condition and go right after him to land the knock-out. Despite his superior reach and height, there was little in the margin between us. I think mv aggressiveness made up for that. Anyhow, I’ll undertake to stop him in another contest if he'll only stand and fight, which, after all. is what the fans pay to see, and can always count on seeing whin l n Sit iate ring.
