Caddock World Heavyweight Contender Faces Stecher Rematch
Anita farmer boy Craddock, hailed as a clean cut heavyweight, weighs under 385 pounds and is praised as a top claimant to the world title. He defeated Joe Stecher in Omaha with minimal reports of the match, seeks a definitive rematch to settle doubts, and trains at his Anita home ahead of plans to start a campaign later this month. Stecher reportedly refused to leave his dressing room for the third fall, a detail manager and fans dispute. Craddock, a Gotch pupil, is regarded as a premier wrestling machine and former national amateur heavyweight champion in 1915.
