This was such a good fight. I thought Floyd deserved it but it was close.
I give more credit to the judges for Braddocks wins over Lewis and Farr than Braddock. Besides, its not like either of those guys are all time...
Loughran and Lewis were light heavies. Loughran dominated Braddock to the point of embarrassment. His fights with Lewis and Farr were gift...

You could say the same thing about Jim Braddock. His entire mythos is build upon the idea that he lost a ton of his fights and yet was somehow...

Cheers! Now Im excited about the possibility of a film of Dempsey slaughtering Fred Fulton!
If you look close at the bottom there is a watermark on the corner footage for British Pathe that isnt present in the other footage of Miske. It...
