    ** Tyson was designed after Dempsey, and interesting that they both shared high pitched voices while being terrible assassins in the ring. Too bad Tyson couldn't follow the rest of the Dempsey model.

                Marciano, Dempsey, Tyson, They sound about the same lol.

                They can walk into a bar or something, and with this high pitch voice "I can lick any SOB in the House". be yelling that.

                And if you DID not know they were Jack Dempsey, Rocky Marciano or Mike Tyson, you may have just laugh.

                They were tought, even if they did not sound like it.

                  oh yeah and I heard Jack Dempsey and the Rock talk if one wanted to know.

                  With Dempsey, I heard him talk after his bout with Cowboy Lurtell, and in his later years on film.

                  And Marciano on Training film, Fights, interviews(Thinking about it, Dempsey on interviews during retirement, and him training with Max Schmling and Max Baer.)

                  I heard Jack Johnson speak too. Nice voice. His voice seem outgoing, and he had non of that Black man talk as they protray him in the comics or news papers ete.

                  I think its a English accent, not 2 sure. Of couse it be part Texas as well.

                    Come to think of it Baer had a somewhat high voice too, and he hit as hard as anyone.

                    Also do you have the Cowboy Lutrell fight on your computer? I've always wanted to see that.

                      No I dont have it on my computer, It is from Jack Dempsey boxing's best series.

                      I got it at a store about 7 or so years ago.

                      Also got Joe Louis, Ali, and Rocky Marciano during that time.
