the point raised was that Jack Dempsey refused to fight black fighters.. i countered by saying it was not Dempsey who drew up the color line it was a sign of the times in that period in history (1920s) i said Lewis chose to fight white guys and avoid all the top black fighters who was at the top of their game at that time (92-03)
Soir - said Lewis fought all the top black guys and virtually no white guys, so micky has came up with the career record of Lewis and what skin color his opponents had and found its 24-18 blacks & whites.... none of the top black fighters when they was at the top of their game like, Holmes (92) WBO champ, Foreman, Moorer, Bowe, Hide, Tyson 96, Holyfield 92-97, Witherspoon 92-95, Byrd, Jones jr. 02-03
Soir took this topic into another direction to try to discredit Jack Dempsey Mike Tyson & Rocky Marciano
