Dillon Most Willing Boxer Before Public
Cincinnati June 2 Not since Australian Billy Murphy has there been a boxer before the public more willing to fight than Jack Dillon. The idol of sport fans, he sparingly selects opponents and rarely delays matches, preferring heavyweights though he has contended with middleweights. Sam Murburger, Dillon’s manager, praises his endurance, imagining Dillon fighting six men in six days and finishing on even terms with each. Dillon, Indiana born in 187?, is 23? years old, known for great strength and relentless offense, with a long record of battles and no known knockout losses. He favors Willard for the heavyweight crown and is regarded as a true fighter with a reputation second to none.
