at

age.

as

under
the
drudgery
of
these
tasks
and
devoted
most
of
his
spare
time
lo
athletics,
where
he
demonstrated
all-round
prowess
through
nat
ural
aptitude
and
physical
qualifications.
He
had
read
of
the
acliieements
of
the
world's
great
pugilists
and
one
day
when
a
friend
took
him
to
a
gymnasium
he
seized
a
chance
lo
enter
the
ring
against
an
amateur
named
Angel
llodriguez.
The
disastrous
ending
of
that
attempt,
in
1917,
was
the
real
stimulus
lo

Series
of
Triumphs
That
setback,
the
only
one
nf
his
career,
was
followed
by
a
succession
of
triumphs.
Firpo,
finding
a
natural
outlet
for
his
physical
ability,
learned
Ihe
rudi
ments
of
the
game
rapidly,
through
relying
chiefly
on
his
strength
and
punch.
He
knocked
out
a
score
of
opponents
as
an
amateur.
Then,
in
his
first
bout
as
a
professional,
-he
knocked
out
an
American,
Mllliatu-
Iary,
in
the
seventh
round.
That
bout
oc
curred
in
September,
1913
in
Chile,
and
was
followed
by
n
siring
of
knockouls
by
Firpo
among
opponents
in
that
country
Uruguay
and
his
natic
land,
the
Argentine.
By

about
all
