Siki Is "Big Bust" Outside
Of Carpentier Affair, Says
Sportsman From Other Side
Senegalese Clumsy

ny nonnrtT i:nom:.v.
According to Americans and ls
tors from tho other sido who hivo
scon Uattllmt Slkl in action, the
battler from Senegal is bound to be
nn "awful bust" If ho Is brought to
this country to fight WIIIh or. for
that matter, any other heavyweight
with a tracii of real dais.
Armour, tho amateur golfing
champion from Scotland, now In
New York, tells mo that ho has seen
Slkl Is action xiuvernt times, in
Krance, and that Wlkl hasn't been
considered anything but a husky
second-rater without skill or u
punch,
"Tho only way I can figure Slkl's
beating Carpentier," he e.ild, "Is that
Carpentier regarded tho fight as a
Joke and didn't train for It at all.
When Carpentier Is In condition .ho
Is lightning fast, and he nut hit hh
luiil us anyone of his weight.
"Through tho fast round or two
Carpentier must havo been playing
with Slkl. showing up tho black
man's'lack of skill.
"Then In the third Slkl got in ono
good blow that&lazet Carpentier.
and Oeorges was In no condition to
recover when Slkl pressed his ad
vantages. I can't imagine. Siki hnving
any chance, to beat Carpentier if Car
pentier is in condition.-
"Why, Slkl fought :o rounds with 1
lournco and couldn't stop him, and
Uombardlcr Wells beat Journeo
easily. Aside from defeating Car
pentlcr Slkl hasn't donu anything
worth mentioning."
Soldier IMrtfleld was watching
Dempsey's training. Thu soldier also
knows Slkl, and was ready to volun
teer a littlo Information ahout thu

"I was boxing In Trance two years

But ho was awkward and ho swung i
