Jack Dempsey in Joe Louis's Era

[GeneralZod]

Never occured to me..... Actually whenever I see pictures of him throwing that right I ask myself that question....the guy was country strong!

But Ben are you aware of the theory regarding Maxi? It was said that killing two men (one direct one indirectly) made him gunshy and who can blame him?
alas he was a lovable loute by all accounts, Howard did a great job villianizing him for the Braddock flic but it was a fun movie and a lot of people came to Maxi's aid!

I'd be surprised if there was no lawsuit over that. Basically slandered Baer's name as a psychotic murderer.

I remember his son not liking the portrayal in the news. He probably threatened a lawsuit.
