    1921 Dempsey (that ktfo'd Carpentier) vs current Wilder for the world title

    Wilder had a lot of advantages in this fight;
    He has reach,height,maybe a slight edge in power, especially the right hand.

    Dempsey has to have the definite edge in tactic, tenacity, heart, and left hand pop.

    Speed is difficult for me to determine as prime Dempsey was deceptively fast.

    Chin..... Well..... We may know who is proven here.
    Who wins it in 15 rounder?

    Dempsey treats Wilder very, very badly in there.

    Jack gets him out of there in 3 after making Wilder to the Stiltman on ice dance a few times

    People will claim Dempsey to small but he was nearly 6'2 and while smallish, punched like a mule and knew how to get in on tall guys
