Enjoyed that. Interesting that he knew that Dempsey wasn't right before the Tunney fight. I wonder what really was responsible for his downfall; inactivity, fame, money, celebrity lifestyle or simply age?!?

He certainly found one of the finest combinations in his entire career to deck Tunney in the rematch....
