Why is Jack Johnson rated so high...

- - Good to see Weensy back proving just how difficult for Black champ JJohnson and Dempsey to defend against black challengers back then or even get a fight made at all.
But had Dempsey been exiled to Paree', we'd have seen a much longer reign against a much broader cast of fighters. As it was, he defended against an Argentinian, French War Hero, and a US Marine Hero, so that ain't shabby for the times. He'd have KOed everyone of JJ defenses, but the same can't be said of JJ vs Dempsey defenses.
Yup
And what you say is clearly false, as Jim Johnson would have made Dempsey want to fight 2 White men instead
And apparently, you also forgot about Flynn KO1.Could he get in another good wallop? Well I don't see why not. Especially if Dempsey doesn't have on bicycle tape.

I've provided articles, book references, quotes and even your own silly sources to prove how Johnson avoided the top black fighters while champion. You're ass-hurt because your hero was an overrated ducker who padded his record against middleweights and inexperienced fighters. Have a good cry on Ivich's shoulder. LOL.Comment

Me too. Midnight Express=greatest heel team ever. And even though most lean towards Bobby Heenan, Corny is my personal favorite because his promos were the funniest. They're both on my managerial Mount Rushmore though. Corny's podcast isn't too bad, but he's overly critical of the AEW promotion. While I agree they still have a long way to go, especially with their tag and women's division, they have it a lot more together match and storytelling wise these days than WWE, whose booking is mostly a dumpster fire today. Check out a tag team called FTR, if you get a chance. They're like a cross between Tully and Arn and The Midnight Express. If you watch any of the current product, that is.Comment

You still here looking for my attention? That's female behavior.

I just addressed your articles and you ran from it. Ilvich gave you sources, and you ran from it.
I'm not "butthurt" at all. The information is here and we call all see how you avoided it. Meanwhile, YOUR hero has no defense other than he was a slave to everyone on his team and thus can't be held responsible for his obvious ducking ways

You still writing back? I thought that was it....but here you are. Like a scorned female?

Is that how you cry when you realized you can't convince anyone that Dempsey has a better resume than Wills
There's a reason that I quoted you on topic and you avoided the topic and chose to go with unrelated pictures. LMAO.Last edited by travestyny; 04-18-2022, 04:14 PM.Comment

I've repeatedly posted sources, records, only to have you to refuse to read it or dismissively call it bullshyt. So why would I bother to entertain you by taking the bait for a never-ending Vietnam where you just refuse to read, refuse to acknowledge, and hold your ground with the same old irrelevant articles and repeating yourself? You're a disrespectful cvnt who only cares about two things, "Winning" and getting the last word. Declare yourself the "winner" now while claiming everyone ran from you and your scrawny shoulders, LMAO!Comment

I specifically asked you about your sources and you in return attacked my character. This is verifiable.
The truth is you know your arguments are usually shlt because you post based on emotion, and you do all you can to avoid discussions for that reason. Period. Ironic that you name yourself Ghost, because you are really that see through.
You've already proclaimed that you are going to run away. So I don't know why you keep posting to me with this bs. I told you. I'm here to talk boxing. I'm not interested in you trying to drag the convo into the mud so that you have a faux way to hit the exit. If you don't want to talk boxing, then bounce.Last edited by travestyny; 04-18-2022, 05:02 PM.Comment

That's not at all what happened.

I've posted valid sources, videos, interviews, quotes, articles, books, etc. You've either dismissed all of them, refused to read them or called them trash. Then you counter with anonymous sources, out of context quotes, or speculation. Now you expect civility in return? Not sure what world you live in. You had no interest in the History Forum until you followed me here. I became your new project after Spoon wore you out with those 400 pages of posts you argued back and forth with him on...thousands of posts from you spanning almost 3 years, on ONE DAMN THREAD! Yeah, I'm not engaging in that sort of insanity.Comment
