Says Sullivan "Montana Jack" Sullivan i* a box er who fought during the era of low purses that the fans won't have to siago any benefits for. Jack saved his shekels. Now he lives the life of Klley, while hi* cow hands h#hdle his ranch near O'Neill, Neb. Just for the love of the game, Jack has taken charge of Homer Sheridan, the Sioux City middleweight, and hopes to impart to this promising lad all his cleverness. Sullivan never owned a title, but he was up among the top-notcher*. He got a draw with Stanley Ketchell two months before he won the mid dleweight title and beat Joe Thomas 10 months after the latter had lost the crown to Ketchell. Flirting With a Title. "I was always flirting with Lady Crown, but never could get quite over," says Jack. Crowns were scarce articles in his day. It was even hard to get fights until a ‘fighter boxed two or three times for nothing. "Heputation fights” they were called. "Sometimes if a fighter went big ; in his first fight, he could get a ! series of bouts," he said. Jack recalls a tough break he got in San Francisco. “The fight game was booming on the coast. The 'Golden West’ was the Mecca of all fighters at that time. So I hit it for ’Frisco, the center of the sport. "I introduced myself to a promoter. He had never heard of me. He admit ted to me later that he thought I was a ’bug’ when I asked to fight such tough ones as Kelly, Papke and A1 Neal. "He refused to put me on. hut told me I could workout as a sparring partner with Kelly. I jumped at the chance. The next day when I got Into j the ring with Kelly. I warned him I was going to ’shoot.’ Out on Ills Feet. “He appeared delighted. " ‘Rood,’ he said, 'I haven’t l|hd a decent workout In month* They're all Canvas kisser*.', “Of course he thought I was one of the specie* too. But in the third round 1 let one go and down he went. Tills won me a fight with Yank Camp- i bell. " 'You'll murder him.' Kelly told me. "Well. T rushed out at Campbell In tent on stopping him in the first round. If I did my reputation was made. Starting All Over. ' But before I realized what had happened he let one go from the floor and caught me flush on the chin. “Then .for the first time in my life I knew what it was to be knocked out on one s feet. “I managed to stay up. My head was clear, but I couldn't control my muscles. In the third round I re gaitjad the power of execution and stopped Campbell In the fourth. "But I had made a mlsernble show ing in the first three rounds and they believed my knockout was acciden tal. "1 had to liegin at the bottom and build myself up again. But 1 finally did. “I got a fight with A1 N’cal at Los Angeles and later with Jim Flynn. 1 fought Flynn three years before his fight with Johnson. 1 got a draw and ho outweighed me 32 pounds.
