That's a cool story Magna Did you spar with him before and after his prime? To me he looked weaker and to not hit as hard after his prime,...
Dempsey - Johnson outboxes him, tires him and uppercuts him in the clinches, Dempsey has a chance early, afterwards Johnson picks him apart...
1. We don't know how good Wills was, he could have been an incredible boxer, his resume is the best of the era, he was a viscous body puncher, a...

You could argue Hatton hadn't been in with anyone until 2005 too. Maybe Tackie, Magee and Phillips were slightly better than Witters opposition...
