The white race controlled boxing and their was no chance Johnson was getting a title shot. He was deeply hated and once he lost to Willard was ignored.
Although Wills was not hated as was Johnson as a black heavyweight he was not getting a title shot. Absolutely no chance. Dempsey tried hard to make the bout occur but in the end their were too many roadblocks.
