[2011PACKERFAN]

you mad bro?

[vitorbelfort]

@2011PACKERFAN you unoriginal?

[LizardDuke]

it's cool to know the history of boxing and jack dempsey is a legend of the sport, but let's face it by todays standards all the fighters of this era were pretty terrible

[dempsey981]

@LizardDuke nah nah,no!lets NOT FACE THAT.Yer dead wrong.im not gonna explain why you wouldnt understand,if you make such a comment.Where do u read this shit,do u jes like, make it up??

[LizardDuke]

@dempsey981 ur obviously a fan of dempsey, so ur opinion is biased. with all the exercise, nutrition and health science breakthroughs,with all the technique and skills training past down through the decades and with all the up to date facilities and equipment fighters today are simply better,boxing was still young as a sport in the early 20th century and has evolved alot since then. u are clearly blinded by ur romanticized,idealized and unrealistic vision of fighters " back in the good old days"

[dempsey981]

@LizardDuke u mean im blinded by unfounded romantic illusions of years gone by?Jesus!thank you for setting me straight,for all these years i thought some of these guys were good.i wish i'd known this long before now.Dempsey was actually a pussy,scientific breakthroughs made this so.

[LizardDuke]

@dempsey981 why u getting so defencive? i never said dempsey wasn't any good, i was simply stating the facts as to why athletes (in any sport) are better today then 100 years ago and to think otherwise is delusional

[dempsey981]

@LizardDuke im ok dont worry.im saying they ate very well then[better than now likely],and in many ways "skills training" has deteriorated not improved.the equipment then was good enuf trust me,this is not rocketry its FIST FIGHTING.ALOT,i mean alot about fighting is about whats inside,thats not a myth,guys like johnson ,langford,ketchel,dempsey had that precious core meaness,confidence and skills that would have stood up in ANY ERA.u called them ALL TERRIBLE,THATS BULLSHIT.im callin u on it!

[MrRoyalFatness]

@LizardDuke What does exercise and nutrition matter? This was Jack Dempsey, the toughest heavyweight champion of all time. Do you have any clue of what hardships he had to endure to get to the top? Todays fighters are basically spoonfed easy opponents for a start, and Jack started his career fighting fully grown men at age 16 - and won. If you believe that 100 years of boxing changes everything, you are the one who is clearly blinded by our era of "super-athletes".

[dempsey981]

@LizardDuke in fact the ignorance of your blanket comment is such that u must be a simple provacateur,ill not glorify you further by even discussing this....all terrible?infinitly stupid?

Lol at the slighty homo erotic painting

[levizer]

its is firpo you shithead!

[faltagh]

It's more of a push than a punch that sends Dempsey out of the ring.

[Buffmanboy]

11 knockdowns in two rounds. Count 'em. Dempsey said later that the hardest punch he took in the fight was the one that caused the flash knockdown in the opening seconds of the fight. Listening to the radio, a couple of poor citizens DIED of heart issues! There can be NO dispute: Dempsey vs. Firpo was the greatest Title fight EVER!

[aschindler22]

wow 7 knockdowns in round 1

[reznick8]

jack dempsey es el mejor de la historia

[consta4891]

tu nosabes ni lo que estás hablando,dempsey pesaba 87kg un peso crucero,l,tyson se inspiró en dempsey, solamente que a la misma agresividad y explosividad de dempsey sumale 15 kg más de masa muscular y en menos altura, poque tyson es 1,78 dempsey era 1,88, tyson era más fuerte, tenía un corazón de guisante pero en cualidades atléticas era superior, más moderno,foreman,ali,frazier71,­larry holmes,jack jonson prime,holyfield prime,ganarían a dempsey, pero jack era una fiera.

jack dempsey destrozaria a mike tyson
