Clipped from the latest issue of Mitt Slingers Magazine...Both Jack Johnson and Jim Jeffries are already in fit condition when they start their training camps and will probably only require a few short weeks to attain top fighting trim...Johnson expects to enter the ring at 205 lbs while Jeff is said to be just ten pounds over his best fighting weight already...The Los Angeles Athletic Club and promoter Jim Coffroth leased a plot south east of the city and erected a temporary open air stadium capable of holding close to 20,000 spectators just for the fight....
