FRESNO. Calif., Oct. 3—(U.R)—
Young Corbett III, Fresno's veteran
shouthpaw boxer, tagged by ex-
pert,* as one of the greatest of j
the ring's left-handers, says he has
hung up the lighting gloves for
keeps.
In the last 21 years Corbett has]
fought 185 times. He will be 36
next May. A ruling by the Calil'or- j
nia state athletic commission pro-
hibits professional appearances by
boxers past 36 except by special
permission.
Corbett was christened Ilneffle
Giordano. He was dubbed "Young
Corbett" at a bout hi Frenso lor
the championship of the Fresno
newsboys' organization when he
was an 80-pound youngster of 14.
The name stuck.
Corbett says he feels he’s doing
the best thing for himself and the
game he loves. He has romped In
and out of rings since his first "re-
tirement" seven years ago.
No Scarred Fighter
Corbett today has none of the
usual scars and pulped ears of the
battler who has been too often ton
the receiving end.
He knows fog-groggy avenue Is
lined with fighting men who "came
buck" eventually to get terrible t|ie
beatings. | sine
The wide - shouldered Corbett neB|
leaves behind what may be the wj,0
best boxing record in modern ring |
history. ,.j
He began boxing professionally
111 Fresno in 1919 He has been1 "
hammering at It ever since. Per-,
ROM
(japs today he could stay with or "
beat any of the 160-pounders.
Corbett won the welterweight ti- ] 1
tie in 1933. In his first battle after ever
winning the title, Jimmy McLar- B'on
nlu knocked him out. Corbett, dis- lht-t
guxted. retired to come back a mlt
year later. llirt
In 1935 Corbett was whipped by Hgh
I/hi Broulllard. He retired again | Ci
