      Jack Johnson was WWE before its time, seriously, guy had minimal skills, was never a talented boxer imo.

          No he isnt, he was a huge guy with no skills who wouldnt have lasted in boxing if the rules and regulations were like they were today. He wasnt a boxer.

                What?

                How did you get that conclusion?

                One is a huge guy who grappled and clubbed his way to victories when boxing was primitive,

                The other is one of the most skilled defensive and offensive fighters ever seen a ring.

                Jack Johnson style means he would most likely be like 'the rock', i think Jack was doing the Rock Bottom on guys long before the rock was born.

                      LOL. I haven't watched a great deal of Johnson, but I agree with you from what I've watched. He only threw wide, clubbing punches and was grabbing his opponent and pushing him around the rest of the fight. very little skill involved from what I saw.
