Dempsey is great, there's no question of that. I'm amongst his harshest critics and I don't doubt that for a second. But whatever the colour of the men who hold him in high regard or the men who criticise him now I think the information age has shown he is clearly not as great as that generation thought him (hence the backlash). I personally don't believe race has anything to do with it. Well, maybe that one guy who keeps re-upping after every ban and attacking all white fighters
Well put it this way, few put Langford or Wills in their top heavyweights. Is this because they were bigoted or just because of ignorance of their achievements and ability? Part of it is probably that they were ignorant to the truth that Dempsey didn't beat the best men of his time Part of it also rose tinted glasses and fans having a contempt for modern/current boxers. Either way when analysed the judgement is both biased and incorrect
Yes mbp I am 18 and I just started to menstruate ! I have to stop now as my mommy is calling me !atschatschatsch
Why did you claim to be eighteen? When did you decide to go with the angle of being a wizened old wise poster?
Calling me for supper... P.S. Let us stop this childish charade m cause your not gonna win...Cheers...
What is there to win? You said you were an 18 year old boy, I'm asking why you did that, and when you decided to go for the wise old man who's seen it all character. There's no victory to be had.
mbp, at first i thought you were joking but obviously you are serious...Look at my avater, do I look like an "18" year old ? My dad was born in 1900. Do the math, and develop a sense of humor....Good day ...
