  • He's outstanding, only just started doing box myself so it's good to watch an old master @ work ! Does anyone know the name of the song playing on the vid, I've searched this page for 'music' but can't find anything?

  • @tinoman2 not at all...

  • @MrRoyalFatness Your welcome. JD, one of the greatest stories in fistiana.

  • at 0:41 he performs his famous Dempsey Roll, you can't see it that well but I think he threw Four chain hits. Awesome combo move :)

  • @1saxonwolf

    Well, thank you for setting things straight. I read the book about Dempsey - A Flame of Pure Fire - but it's been a while now, details get mixed up.

  • @MrRoyalFatness - Even Flynn knew it was a dive. He said " all I'll say is I threw a right hand and Dempsey Fell." Dempsey was literally living day to day, he needed the dough,thats why he never really liked talking about the fight in later years.

  • @MrRoyalFatness There's many apparent false stories about that fight & much confusion. Dempsey didn't have ribs broke against Flynn. It was JL Johnson fight. He wasn't left unconscious& purse stolen, that was Sudenberg fight. Flynn was 37 yrs & had 93 fights, already fought for title twice. Been fighting since 1899. Dempsey was only 21 & a nobody. Flynn was 5' 9 1/2'', Dempsey 6' 1. Many involved with the fight admitted a fix. $500 to take a dive, JD needed $. Yr later he Ko Flynn 1 rnd.

  • Jack Dempsey, awesome fighter - even Mike Tyson thinks so!

  • If you claim to have general knowledge of boxing, and still dust off Dempsey as old news, you have no general knowledge of boxing.
