The Fable of the Coming Champion Who Was Delayed (1914)

The coming "champ" decides he is so good he can go around a Dub like a Cooper around a Barrel. He books up with a Foxy Manager. They arrange to pick out Soft Ones to begin with and work up to the championship. They find a Has-Been. After the Coming Champ and the Physical Wreck sign articles, they begin training. Although the coming champ was satisfied his hard Punches would kill the poor old Has-Been, he begins to worry. When the battle opens the Has-Been does a marathon in pursuit of the Coming Champ. The Coming Champ was doing fine work until somebody turned off the Sun-Light.
