Dempsey - W 65 (KO's) TF 82 - W pct 80% - KO pct 61% - wins over Williard and Firpo - KO'ed by "Fireman" Jim Flynn - #7 ranked puncher - #16 ranked fighter
Later became referee/matinee idol

This is a good question, both men were ko artists, Dempsey was a savage fighter, as you remember, there was no rule that a fighter would go to a neutral corner until Dempsey instituted the rule in 1927 in a match with Tunney, the old time fighters were in a different era and Dempsey by tko in the 11th round of a 20 round match

The Kevin Rooney experienced Tyson damn close to eats up easily all of us previous college or new college. i'm purely conserving it actual. I say Tyson ought to win with the aid of ok.O.. Dempsey does no longer run, has too a lot heart, and is not any longer quick sufficient. He would not supply Tyson sufficient angles or length. Tyson ought to were the great yet he fell aside.

there is no way mike Tyson can survive with Dempsey.probably a thirty second fight.once you take mike heart away.(which is not very hard to do) you just break him down till he quites.i dont put mike in the ring with this animal from the 20's.no freakin way.
