Corbett Tko'd Jeffries In An Ex Match!

Fitz also said he had a stiff punch. So Fitz knocked out Corbett's gold tooth and pulled it out from his glove thumb? What round? Not buying that one.

Corbett hit hard enough to floor Fitz. Fitz held on because he was hurt, then went down, and got a bit of a long count. You can see Siler and the time keeper argue about the time on film. Maybe if you watch the films, you'd see some of these boxers options really don't match up with what happened. If Fitz wasn't hurt, he would not be down as long as he was.

 

I am busier these days. You continue to pick and chose at ANYTHING that makes Johnson look bad. It only makes you look biased and wrong.

Smith wasn't in the fight, he was just a novice sparring partner who knocked Johnson silly, and judging by the papers at ringside, Ketchel nearly did the same as Johnson rolled over, braced himself to get up, was off balance, and according to the primary press at hand was dazed. Jack himself said Kethcel could hit. He's lucky Ketchel who took punishment only landed two solid blows, which brings us to ask the question about Johnson chances vs a good heavyweight puncher? Not so good, he just did not have the chin and was forutune to fight weak opposition. Well, he skried the best opposition, so perhaps he was smart by doing that.

Johnson struggling with super middleweight types is nothing new.

Choynski KO'd him cold. O'Brien likely outboxed him. And Ketchel floored him. Could you imagine such a thing happening to any heavyweight champion post Maricnao?!

Key point, the story of the fix grew after Ketchel's death. Hmmm...
