Anyone who dismisses Jeff as a great fighter is an idiot. They essentially believe that because he was born in 1875 he couldn't have been any good. Lmao, Jeff could go 25 3 miute rounds. how many of todays bums with their great modern training technique could go 25? Hard times make hard men, hard men make great fighters. Jeffrries would k.o. the K' brothers both in the same nite!!!

@1899sharkey I completely agree with your statements on jeff being able to put up any fight in 1910 and him being able to dominate the fighers of today. Its a complete travesty that many think jeffries would be beat by the likes of lewis, and tyson. Jeffries was perhaps the greatest athlete to grace the heavyweight division. Without question he had almost superhuman levels of stamina. He was a tough man. He would fair well with any fighter. If nat rated him so highly he must have been great!!

@BLICKSTEINHUGHES The only problem with your story about James J Jefferies beign your great uncle is that if your father is 62, that means James Jefferies was born 74 years old before your father was born and died just 3 years later. Now I dunno how old that makes your Grand parents but way too old to be having your dad lets just say that much.

@illmatic826 - Ridiculous !!! Jeffries would whip both of them, maybe kill Tyson since he couldn't run !!!

@BLICKSTEINHUGHES - Wrong !!!

@uncjim My grandfather said the greatest fighter of all time was Jack Dempsey. He was born in 1899. But he also said Pancho Villa (the revolutionist not the boxer) was the toughest man on earth so go figure.
James J Jeffries is my great uncle. I am very proud of him and his work. I am bigger than most kids my age (13 years old) and I have James's jaw shape. I look mostly like my father though. James Jeffries is a great boxer.

@jhs1958 Exactly that is what I am saying. Jeffries was one of the best, if not the best, heavyweight boxers.
