the famous belt and Thomas N. Donnelly,
who owns the original, asks that Robb b
restrained from exhibiting It.
According to Donnelly, Mr. Robb'a fan
slmfle 1 worth only 1J00, while bis Is valued
at 310.000. This magnificent trophy was
presented to John I. en July 4, Wtt. the
year before he fought Charley Mitchell In
Chantllly, France.
- At that time John L. was the most
famous character In tha sporting world,
and the belt really represented the oham
plonshlp of the world, although critics have
argued themselves blue In the face whether
John evb,r was the world' title holder.
It was two years later that SulUvan met
and beat Jake Kllraln at Richburg, over
th seventy-five-round route. This fight
and the on with Mitchell are among the
most noted In th history of the prise
ring.
Donnelly has had th belt in hi pos
session for many year. It Is said that
John I. pawned it when In financial
trouble.
