    lewis waited for all his contemporaries to get old while he fought bums, period end of story, he was a late bloomer and beat over the hill former champions, ali has victories over every fighter in his era that was worth a ****, to even compare lewis to ali is assanine

      And your "this is easier than I thought" crap is weak. He fought black fighters, disprove me on that, would you? Once?

        My understanding of the whole situation was that Dempsey shamelessly ducked TOP black fighters through and through. My grandfather (excuse the reference but he knows his ****) has told me that the whole thing was pretty cut and dry. I dunno about Dempsey being a racist however...


        My prediction...Jose TKO 11 against a tough, hungry whdempsey.

          dempsey is lucky he didnt fight in the 50's anyway, marciano would have kayoed his ****y ass in 2 rounds anyway, and so would ali just to make it politically correct for you racially conscious fans

            This is not some unknown boxing theory that I just made up. This is commen boxing knowledge. When Jack Dempsey became World Champion he flat out refuse to fight black fighters. No I dont beleive he was "afraid" but weather he was afraid or it was business he didn't want to have anything to do with putting his World Title on the line against a black man.

            Thats Boxing 101

            Anyone who tells you different doesn't know what there talking about or a shameless fanboy.

            and yes it was easier than I thought it was going to be

                More meaningless rhetoric while dancing around the question. Oh, and what, do you and Old Goofball live together? Are you the same person? What's the ****ing deal with Old goofball holding your hand every time someone calls you on your ****? Pathetic.

                    No, but if they were, I'd still much prefer that to getting my anus hurt the way you do. Talk about something you know, like blatant ****sexuality, and leave posting about boxing to the real fans.
