(Special to The iDaily)
NEW YORK, July 21.-Jack Demp-
sey, former heavyweight champion or
the world, proved his right to meet
Gene Tunney, present champion, by
knocking out Jack Sharkey of Bos-
ton in the seventh round of their
scheduled 15 round fight, here to-
night.
With 45 seconds of the seventh
round gone Dempsey slipped over a
left hook, the punch that had made
him champion, and Sharkey wvent
down. He never got up and had to
be .carried to his corner. Up until
the time of the knockout punch the
fighting had been ferocious but even.
Both fighters went into the fight
with one idea, and that idea was to
knock the other off his feet for the
count of ten. From the first to the
seventh round both Jacks hit and
received without doing apparent
damage, but the fighting was terrific
Before the fight, experts at the ring-
side stated that Dempsey looked more

The first round opejied with both
fighters striving to land a knockout

siderable punishment from Sharkey

round Dempsey was momentarily

be knocked out. However, he re-
covered and fought Sharkey off.
