Young Ketchell: "I was confident all through the fight that I was go ing to win. Thomas was clever but his blows did not have force enough to hurt me and at no time was I in anv distress. I think I proved con clusively last 'night that I am his sunenor. and I will now look for some one else to fight." Joe Thomas: "I figured that I was outpointing Ketchell all through tho fight, but I have no kicking coin ing at Referee Berger's decision. Ketchell is a very strong young fel low and his blows contain a great deal ot punishing power. I did the best I could and if the referee thinks that Ketchell had the better of the fiirht I am satisfied." Sam Merger: "It was Ketchell's great animal strength that won the fight for him. Thomas fought a game and a clever fight, but thero were times during the battle that he was weak and his cleverness and clean hit tins were more than offset bv. tne force of Ketchell's punch. Both bovs broke quickly when I told them, and take it all through It was a nice light to referee." .Mlsi.stcr Narrowly Averted.
