    You say this how? Can you post the link or the article to Dempsey admitting he was ducking Wills. The contract was pretty clear from what you posted.
    I know you're(notice the difference between "your and you're) honest but you tend to interpret things to suit your agenda.

    If you could do your own research Id welcome it. Instead you wait for your betters to post something and then chime in. I think the correct parlance is "troll."

    Your memory must be short. Ive already posted his exact words and the page number from his own book where he wrote them. But come on, you knew that. Just like Mendoza youll make the same ridiculous claim over and over and over and conveniently forget when the words of the people you are talking about are quoted verbatim.

    Pretty please, please post it again since I don't remember, if I saw it or not. What is the title of the book? Now you're left with the Shelby deal and the kearns stalling, I will reserve my judgement on the Dempsey quote when I see it and in what context.

    This forum has a search feature. Its not my job to spoon feed ignorant trolls such as yourself who either have short attention spans or simply ignore (As weve seen from you a lot lately) anything that doesnt agree with your bizarre view on the sport.

    i'll go with fan non-fiction, but no doubt it's an article only a mother could write.

    i don't mind this stuff tho, it's written in a way that could draw new people into classic boxing and anyone who knows will see the bias a mile off.

    I'd be lying if I denied that the Dempsey lore, with all it's fabrications and exaggeration, got me into classic boxing.

    1915-05-17 Reno Evening Gazette (page 6) - that's two weeks before they fought
    "Johnny Sudenberg has been matched to fight Jack Dempsey of San Francisco at Goldfield next week. The fighters will weight 165 pounds at the ringside."

    1915-05-21 Reno Evening Gazette (page 6)
    "Jack Dempsey has been signed to meet Sudenberg in Goldfield on Decoration day. He will leave Reno tonight."

    1915-06-01 Reno Evening Gazette (page 6)
    Young Jack Dempsey of Pueblo and Johnnie Sudenberg of South Omaha, middleweights, fought 10 fast rounds last night to a draw decision given by the referee, Emory Arnold. Dempsey had a slight advantage throughout, according to most experts, and fought like a "comer."
