Jabs and Counters in Boxing News from New Orleans
From New Orleans comes news that Peter Maher the Irish champion trains quietly there. El Herman plans matrimony at about 19. Bat Nelson travels to Bumps. Gans’ camps seem to migrate by water. About nine and a half years ago Jos Gans avoided alimony by convincing a Baltimore judge he could not fight. The Murphy Herman bout date shifted from April 17 to March 18. Paddy’s Day fight would have given Murphy a handicap, and Jack O’Brien went to England to rally Philadelphians. Tommy Murphy had to save New York and reach Philadelphia to win Harlem’s pride.
