Any thoughts on Benny Bass?

Dempsey is quoted as saying "He is the greatest fighter of his weight and inches I have ever set my eyes upon."

Is he an ATG?

Look at the tremendous physique of this man, it is not a common physique for the time.

amazing physique.. Bass was a phenominon who fought a couple of IBHOF fighters and held his own with them, he was one of several brilliant ***ish fighters who fought during the 1920s & 30s... nice find Carlos

His record is outstanding and I also read that he fought Tony Canzoneri in a blood and guts batter to a CLOSE split decision loss, despite having broken his collar bone in 5 places.

This guy sounds like he had one hell of a career but I can not find any video on him.
