Johnsons Challenge to Burns Sparks London Strife
Jack Johnson and manager Samuel Fitzpatrick arrived in London from New York and issued a challenge to heavyweight champion Tommy Burns to fight anywhere for any purse Burns accepts. Johnson offers to bet Burns 2400 dollars that he will stop him in twenty rounds and would concede Burns two thirds of any purse. Burns demands 30,000 for his share, while Johnson can arrange the side bet. The match may occur in England or America depending on the purse, with a Paris club possibly raising funds to lure Burns.
