RITCHIE BETTER
THAN JOE RIVERS
OR LEACH CROSS
Whatever the relative merits of
Leaflh Cross and Joe Rivers may be
It plain that neither strengthened his
position as a championship possibil
ity to any great extent by his per
formance on Tuesday night. 'Rivers
is supposed to show up much better
in twenty rounds than in ten, yet he
weakened in the closing sessions with
Cross, who is essentially a short dis
tance boxer. - s
In their first bout It was Rivers
who finished strong, and this was as
expected; consequently when the sit
uation was reversed on Tuesday night
the dope was completely upset. Just
why Rivers slowed up after taking a
big lead in the early rounds is hard
to account for unless he was caught
out of condition. '
.But it has been said of Rivers that
he is what is known as a front run
ner, and his actions seemed to bear
out that view. He boxed in great
style at first, and it looked' as though
Cross would not be able to place a
round to his credit. But the moment
Cross shot over a few hard ones Riv
ers lost confidence and his lack of
real class was apparent.
Champion Ritchie's ability isv still
something of a mystery, but appar
ently he should have little difficulty
in defending his title against either
Rivers or Cross. In 'view of the fa"et
that Rivers is young, and can be en
pected to. improve, he will probably
be the one Ritchie will have to reck
on - with, as Cross is too much of a
veteran to be taken seriously in a
championship bout.' , '
If ' Ritchie ( is the clever boxer he Is
supposed to" be, Rivers will have to
do a lot of improving to come out
on top. The Mexican's style never
varies, and should be easy to solve
by a good ring generaL As a boxer
he does not class with Packey Mc
Farland, Freddie Welsh or Jack Brit
ton, and as a fighter pure and sim
ple his dislike for punishment offsets
to a great extent his' superior
strength.
If Cross gets a chance to meet the
champion he would have an outside
chance of landing a winning punch
just as he did against Mandot, but
he would have to be very lucky.
