Kilbane

Johnny Kilbane, featherweight champion of the world, announced his retirement from the ring after two fights for which he is now under contract. Kilbane has held the featherweight title for twelve years. He will climb into the ring with Eugene Criqui, Frenchman, at the Polo Grounds, New York, on June 2. If he climbs out again undefeated, he will take on Johnny Dundee, and then hang up his gloves forever.
