That's typical McFarland. Forcing the fight all the time (even against tough sluggers, who really loved wars, he forced them back away, not vice versa). Volleys of punches, and he's not wasting any, very quick hands. Quick feet too, in and out movement for defense, also blocking a lot of punches too, wonderful defense. He was considered the most skillful boxer in the world, ahead of Abe Attell and the rest, only behind Joe Gans, of his contemporaries. Very good infighting skills, right uppercut was his favorite weapon at close range. Although he sometimes was taking things easy, when he thoroughly outclassed his opponents, allowing them last the distance, and only attempting for a knockout in the very last round, but against Welsh it wasn't the case. He's forcing the fight, not giving the opponent any rest. He clearly deserved the decision in this fight, but was only given a draw.
