You're convincing me. Tunney's a bum. The guy didn't accomplish anything. That's why Greb bet everything he owned on Dempsey.
Oh, come on. Do you think you are the first person to have heard of Jimmy Walker? Bob Hope actually played him in a movie and he was the subject...
"That doesn't constitute an admission in your eyes" Tunney certainly wasn't all that defensive. "ignorant masses" They just won't listen...

Gibson was not all that clean. And were the guys who handled Louis? Are you saying that this proves this or that fight was fixed? Is it your...
"Tex Rickard and Lord Lonsdale" These men are fighters? Ring Magazine fighter of the year--I really don't know what imput Fleischer had in...
1. Split decision--I will yield the point to you. Miles voted for Greb and he was outvoted. 2. Odds--So Tunney being an 8 to 5 favorite...
