“Ad surprised me with his speed and strength. He also covered up much better than he did in our previous fight and it was difficult for me to get a good poke at his jaw. He always had his glove underneath his chin and I had to wait patiently in order to get a good crack at his jaw. It was only on four different occasions that I was able to measure him with a straight right hand punch and every time that I did the blows reached its mark and took much steam out of him. He is a tough fellow, but I knew I had him after the eighth round, because I could tell in the clinches that he was losing his grip and was weakening fast.”
