From the July 1891 issue of Mitt Slingers Magazine...Corbett has signed to defend against old pal Joe Choynski in San Francisco for a guarantee of 75% of the purse offered by the Olympic Athletic Club and a side wager of $5,000....Choynski has signed the articles and supporters have posted the $2,000 forfeit...Choynski has moved into his training camp and hired Peter Jackson and Philadelphia Jack O'Brien as spar mates...Corbett will finish a run at the Alhambra Theatre before opening his training quarters...George Chuvalo has signed to meet Joe Goddard at Vancouver...John L. Sullivan failing to get a match with any man ranked above him has agreed to a rematch with Hank Griffin in Boston...
