    You havn't tried to explain anything to me you have just repeated how you think the fight would turn out and periodicaly insulted me.

    Perhaps one day you will be wise enough to know how little you know.

    I think Mike stops Jack in the third round, but it would be a helluva fight while it lasted.

    Unfortunately Mike, would like to say Dempsey. Maybe if Dempsey had modern training ect and could pack on some weight so he wasnt a cruiser fighting a heavy

    Tyson early stoppage. Looking at the poll glad to see sanity prevailed here.

    what type of "modern" training do you picture?

    I too would like to know because Mike's regime was very old school anyway, running, sparring, speed and heavy bag, pads and calistenics. That's it.

    Maybe Dempsey gains some weight due to the change in diet, but I still doubt he'd be as big as Tyson who was over 200lbs when he was 16. Just a genetic freak like Foreman.

    even the change in diet stuff is funny.....who did his cooking for at least his early days? Carmelia, or whatever her name is Cus's women? than maybe some gym guys...they werent making some special forumla food...not like he was drinking some special protein shake with whatever the **** in it.

    will say though, if you actually look at the tale of the tape on Dempsey..he doesnt seem that much smaller....
