    Boxers usually say the time when they were fighting was the time of the best fighters and fighters were not as good after they retired.

      1967. Times have changed.

      I wonder what Dempsey would think about the boxing scene in 2021. Haha

        Bring back the small clubs indeed. There were so many back in the day which allowed there to be a large number of fighters plus experienced trainers.

          He would make a comeback and fight a YouTuber.
