[GIF] Gene Tunney shows some of his technique

Apparently he felt those techniques would only work on white opponents.

 

'er Harry Wills had an opportunity to fight him but didnt does that count?

 

Wills and L. Lewis
The 2 most overrated HW's in history

 

Again, what did Wills have to prove at the end of 1925. He was far and away the best challenger for the title for half a dozen years. Without overt racism who would have been in the drivers seat on a title shot?

 

This has been discussed ad nauseam. There were other factors besides racism, for one, Wills and his manager didnt help their own cause. Why not discuss these other factors?

 

Nice clip....these old films are great. Thanks.
