Johnson doesn't look all that great on film either. Toying with miniature fighters like Burns and Ketchell and playing with an inept Flynn doesn't...
Good point Janitor. Styles make fights as we all know and I think Dempsey has the style to beat Rocky in what would be prhaps the most sensational...
I've wrestled with this matchup a million times before and come up with a million different outcomes. On paper I can't see liston losing. He has...
