IS BOXING WORTH WHILE?
THIL TO RETIRE AT 31
TRAINING TOO STRICT
WHAT ATHLETES THINK
London, August 27.
Is a boxing career worth while? This question has been freely discussed In "sporting circles since the announcement yester day in Paris that Marcel. Thil the French holder of the world's {middle-weight title, is to give jup boxing after the corning
season at the age of 31.
Thil, who is at present in Vichy, said last night:
"I find it so hard to make the weight for a fight. I am not al- lowed to eat up to my appetite I
not allowed to drink or smoke, nor am I allowed out alone.
"In other words, I am treat- ed like my wife treats my. own baby. Who would be a professional boxer?”
M. Alex Taïtard. Thil's father- fin-law and manager, states:
“The actual fights are nothing: it is the training which makes the game not worth the candle.
"Thil is always obliged to train down about 9lb., and has to diet. He has had a magnificent career and earned enough glory and money.
