St* 7 IN THE WORLI I AT THE RINGSIDE 1 By CHARLES J. LIVINGSTON | for AN I* ^lAiiLES JUST WONT MAKE - a ^Ezzard Charles should stop lidding himself about winnifig j _ | back the heavyweight champion? ship. Ez, sapped of his zip and j -: * erstwhile fine coordination, just i \^on*t tnake it. It's as plain as i that, and millions of TV viewers ' > who saw him get slapped around LL...I A n_ *yy llgil L i aur ' > ? *-4rew8 rect*itly must realize this. l : -' ? Y?t Charles, a congenial-fellow why is well liked by the 'press * ^eritr;'. keeps dreaming of the uti . ...id as he .dreams,; the co ' ,. crown slins further away from a1 in. , . Tmee veeks ago In his Chlea-1 -? -Kb.: Stadium dressing room " fdj-! lowing the Andrews fight, the former "Cincinnati Corba" told, this Scribe .that he is "still mix-i ious to .meet Rocky Marcjaiio in J a third title showdown. "I think !. I can outsmart him," he said. He' jirobably can, but not with - his list. -----* Significantly enough, none o f the reporters present took Ez- ~ zard's statement seriously, They just don't" believe he "has iC" ? anymore. I ?hn't eitheV.? ' , . Of. course with Rocky and Ar-| Chie Moore meeting in the Van-1 kee Stadium on Sept. 20, the fid'., ure of the heavyweight champion 1 ship is unpredictable at this! time. Rut this much is clear, who ever wins that fight can knock j ~ee 'is...,.....! r?l...I Uil v.j.? iiico i ci?,aui^i Andrews. , With Charles it is :y case of ' * the mind is willing but_"the flesh I is- weak. He knows what l? e j '* wants to do, but cannot put hisj h ideas into actio,n. He is what is1 * termed a fading fighter, on his I 'f way, out. In boxing a lot depends on co 9 Ordination. A fighter mast-be a^ bde to coordinate his thinking ?| * and punching with his 'movement around the ring, and when h e looses that ability, he is in for trouble. That, is Charles' case. He 5 ' lacks coordination^ To begin with, Charles legs are not what they used to be. They fail him under pressure, causing him to get nailed in his tracks. He got plastered against the game but green Johnny Hoi- j man, and against unseason Pa til j Andrews, all because he was too i clmi- In Vw.t'n t'irrlit^ lin miirltf ' have avoided most of those blows by simply dancing: out of range. So les's admit it Charles. You are not as good as you used to be and, thus, cannot perform _as_ before. As an individual, I have al-j rh...rlp< fm- hi-t forthrightness ami severity vet he is not sincere to himself when I he continues to think he is the j same Charles when his action in the ring proves otherwise. Charles just won't make it. ROBINSON MAY TRAIN IN { HAWAII AFTER CASTELLAN! , FIGHT Ey HUBERT H.
