Excerpt from a Maritime Wire Service report carried in many Canadian and New England papers..."News is expected any day of a proposed prize fight of 15 rounds duration between the so-called "Boston Strong Boy" John L Sullivan and "The Toronto Hercules" George Chuvalo (born Jure Cuvalo). The Canadian lad's agent has so far regarded such a contest as ridiculous in the light of his negotiations with Nova Scotia's George Godfrey the current North American champion at Montreal with both their titles on the line. Dave "Spider" Jones told reporters that any fight with Sullivan could wait until the IBU world title has been decided."
