    He basically DID lose 19 out of 20 rounds fought. Not sure why you think it was so competitive, it wasn't.

    There was a good chunk of the fights where it was competitive. Just like I said. I didn't say the two fights were competitive overall in fact I said Tunney was decisively the winner on both accounts.

    Step in with almost any punch I would say, but it takes all sorts.

    This is an answer to literally any matter of technique, ever discussed, anywhere, by anyone.

    Dempsey steps in with his left but Tunney is already out of range. I just disagree that Tunney is open for anything here.

    I disagree that prime Dempsey couldn't have landed here, and I think it's one of the many things - the thing - that would have made prime Dempsey a more difficult challenge for Tunney. But agree to disagree.
