I'll Show em Who's Like Dempsey Says Sailor
Boston fighter Jack Sharkey trains at Gus Wilson's 12 acre farm near Orangeburg to ready for the June 12 bout with Max Schmeling. Managers Buckley Lacey and Palozzolo say Sharkey has shed past hot headedness and focuses on sharp left hooks as he weighs about 197 pounds and promises a seven round knockout. Sharkey rejects Dempsey comparisons and aims to prove he is the true heir to the heavyweight title.
