Big lumbering oafs like Klitschko or a light hitting Fury would have had nothing for him.
THE 6'0 190 pound prancer ,limited power who leaped in and out as well with his hands down (yes these were INFERIOR outdated skills )is not going to out box the 6'6 SHW who had speed strength and ring IQ ,he wouldn't even beat Amatuer Wlad . Tunney didnt even fight prime Dempsey and struggled . Onlya fool would think Tunney defeats Klitchko ,go back to sleep .Last edited by juggernaut666; 01-16-2017, 01:55 PM.Ascended likes this.

Tunney's footwork alone would tie him up in knots. Let alone his combinations.

Cmon, non of this historical champs, like Dempsey, Jack Johnson wouldn`t have a chance against modern heavyweights. Be realistic, those guys were simple too small. And they were not muscular and strong like Mike Tyson. Even iron Mike was stopped when he faced much bigger guys ( Lennox).
Stop idealizing fighters from the past.Ascended likes this.
