Fraggott has been in rigorous training, sparring with Sea. Barry and A.B. Foley. "He has taken punishment, and given 'aomie,'" remarked one of his sparring part-

Fraggott is about 10 stone, 10 b, which is just 30 fb under the Middle Weight top-weight.

Asked what his chances were, Fragkott said that he would have to go all out to beat Christie, who, in his opinion, is a good man.
