The two men quarrelled bitterly and it was clear that the

/ðə/ /tuː/ /mɛn/ /ˈkwɒrəld/ /ˈbɪtəli/ /ænd/ /ɪt/ /wɒz/ /klɪə/ /ðæt/ /ðiː/

argument could only be settled by a fight. A match was held

was defeated. Mendoza met Humphries in the ring on a later

/wɒz/ /dɪˈfiːtɪd./ /Mendoza/ /mɛt/ /Humphries/ /ɪn/ /ðə/ /rɪŋ/ /ɒn/ /ə/ /ˈleɪtə/

occasion and he lost for a second time. It was not until his

/əˈkeɪʒən/ /ænd/ /hiː/ /lɒst/ /fɔːr/ /ə/ /ˈsɛkənd/ /taɪm./ /ɪt/ /wɒz/ /nɒt/ /ənˈtɪl/ /hɪz/

third match in 1790 that he finally beat Humphries and

quickly forgotten. He was sent to prison for failing to pay his

/ˈkwɪkli/ /fəˈgɒtn./ /hiː/ /wɒz/ /sɛnt/ /tuː/ /ˈprɪzn/ /fɔː/ /ˈfeɪlɪŋ/ /tuː/ /peɪ/ /hɪz/
