How would dempsey do against todays Heavyweights?

[OctoberRed]

So he'd struggle with the likes of a Bermaine Stiverne? Really? And Anthony Joshua? I doubt it. I could see Wilder giving Dempsey problems, but that's about it. Now, if you went back just a few years then I could see knowing that he'd get dominated or stopped later by Vitali, but gets to the chin of Wlad. Why must I know that? Because Dempsey had a weak chin or he never hurt a bigger opponent?

That's why its always very hard to compare one era with another.

That's why its always very hard to compare one era with another.

It can be sometimes, but the term all time great exists because it's believed an athlete can be dominant in any era and at least competitive in others. Dempsey has been given the label of ATG, so that means he'd be tough for almost any heavyweight historically. Do you think Dempsey has a tough time with many heavyweights competing professionally today?

He would not be elite.
