    The jack johnson that lost to willard while ahead on the cards, still good enough to be there, 26 rounds in vs the dempsey who lost the battle of the long count. Who win s this battle of the aged legend s. Who at this point in there careers as most left???

    To be honest I'd have plumped for johnson myself. Dempsey despite long count was losing every round. He got lucky against sharkey and lost first gene fight by a mile, where as Johnson would have probably won if the fight had been scheduled for 20

    Both still really good fighters. Very hard to pick, good matchup.
