   Also mentions he called out every top white HW on a winner takes all or whatever terms that would suit them and how he went to Cuba to try and challenge the Johnson-Willard winner

   It wasn't just the champions who were reluctant to fight Harry Wills.
   
   A lot of the top white contenders saw it as a bad career move to fight a black contender, even if they expected to win.
