What Was Jackson's Status When he Fought Jeffries?

Glad you are back, would you now like to comment on my correcting your statement ? I'm happy to refresh your memory .


Here is your assertion ,and below it my correction which you still have not answered.

EVEN FUNNIER!!!!

Jackson fought Jem Smith in 1889, on the 11th of November.
NO TITLE WAS AT STAKE .Jackson was defending NOTHING when he fought Slavin.

From July 1891 until May 1895 Smith was retired.

What will you do now ,admit you are WRONG ?
Or do your usual and creep away not answering.:hi:

Seems you can find the time to come back and add zero to the discussion but not the time admit you were totally wrong .What an arsehole you are.

No worries about you losing face, you can always put another one on.

I'd be embarrassed for you, if I thought you had any sense of shame.

 

This is without fighting for those titles ? Some feat that.:good

 

What it means is Jeffries was happy to fight a 37 years old alcoholic ,tubercular black man who had engaged in one no contest in 6 years, but he was rather less keen in fighting a near prime black man who still had a pulse. Poor old Peter Jackson ducked by three heavyweight champions and then had his corpse picked over on by the one that succeeded them.atsch

 

Really excellent find!
I think we can assume that Jem Smith had a better claim to be" Champion of England ",than Mitchell. However Jackson beating him would not make Jackson the English Champion , because by definition he would have to have been, not only born in England , but be an Englishman. We have Jackson considered as the number three heavyweight in the world behind Sullivan the Champ ,and ex champ Kilrain , I note this is dec 1889.

Thanks once again for this info.:good

 

Interesting, Mitchell was known as a very good street fighter.

 

Lets examine this "fine link" of yours. It states that Jackson fought Salvin, yes that's right Salvin,on April 30th 1890 in the NSC which for your information was in Covent Garden London UK. In 1890 Jackson was in the US the entire year, he fought Denver Ed Smith on the 19th of May, 11 days before this link says he defended his Empire title against "Salvin" . Jackson fought Slavin in 1892.

If Jackson was defending his" Empire title", as you say,who did he beat for it?


N.B. When Jackson beat Jem Smith in 1889 ,Smith had no titles and was 6-0-2
Slavin by the way ,was never the Empire Champ either, he could reasonably claim to be the Australian champ since he had beaten Mick Dooley in dec 1888 in a bout billed for that title but thats it.

This "fine thread" of yours states that" Salvin" was a sometime pupil of Jackson's this again is amusing since Slavin hated coloured people and originally refused to fight Jackson.

It further states that Jackson's manager was Jim Fitzpatrick when Jackson fought Jim Corbett , Jacksons manager then was Charles" Parson" Davies, in fact Fitzpatrick was NEVER Jackson's manager. Fine sight that.atsch
The man that wrote this twaddle knows as much on the subject as you do ,in other words JACK ****.

A word of advice when using expressions like , " not the sharpest knife in the drawer," as away of casting aspersions on the intelligence of your protagonist, it is as well to be able to actually spell the word DRAWER
not DRAWatsch

Now can we get back to you stating that Jackson kod Smith in 1892 thus winning the Empire title. When ,as I pointed out Jackson fought Smith in 1889.?

THIS WAS THREE YEARS EARLIER, WHEN SMITH HELD NO TITLE, AND, THUS WAS NOT DEFENDING ONE WHEN HE FOUGHT SLAVIN IN 1892.
WILL YOU NOW ADMIT YOU ARE WRONG??????

WAITING

 

You are correct as usual ,but Mendoza won't admit he is wrong ,he is incapable of it.
