    Yes there's certainly a lot of evidence to suggest that Dempsey was used as a cash cow for the mob of that era

    Didn't go according to plan once Tunney won the belt though. Al Capone lost $500,000 on the long count and Tex Rickard lost his last 600,000 on the promotion of Tunney's easy defence vs New Zealander, Tom Heeney in 28 Tunney then retired from boxing, and Rickard past away without a pot in 29

      Is this guy saying that Jack Dempsey was over rated?

        Lol. Well if it isn’t my #2 fan right behind GhostofD.

        Read the thread. Shouldn’t be too hard for you to find the answer to your question.

        Let me give you a hint: VERY FIRST POST. Did you even read it? Your question proves that you didn't.

        Congratulations. After your failure and embarrassment attempting to attack me in the thunderdome, you've already failed in your venture here after a single post. Maybe third time's the charm?

        Better luck next time.

          You've got some mental issues man. I can help you, but only to a certain extent. You'll have to seek a professional after that.

            Do you have anything on topic to post here? You asked a question. It was answered in the first post.

            You should learn to read. I could help you with that but only to a certain extent. You’ll have to seek help from a special ed teacher after that.

              Bro, that thread is hysterical. I'm sorry it's at your expense.

                Good to see you back. You are a welcome presence here IMO.

                  It’s hysterical because you accused me of having an alt and claimed in the opening post that you would bet the farm on it, then I accepted and offered a sig control bet or ban bet with you and you backed down and got laughed at.

                  Now unless you have some info regarding the topic here, I suggest you stop bumping this thread. Your old drunk father GhostofDempsey doesn’t like it and is already trying to retaliate by attacking Joe Jeannette, Harry Wills, Jack Johnson, Sam McVey, Muhammad Ali, and Floyd Mayweather. I wonder what they all have in common.

                      Why are you asking me this here? You're hi******* the thread. Why don't you ask me this somewhere more appropriate? If you want to continue this conversation, do it somewhere else.

                      But to answer your question, my favorite active fighter is Lomachenko. Don't necessarily think he beats everyone that he has been preliminarily matched up with, but I like his style and skill set.
