    OMFG! LOL LOL LOL :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

    This had to be the most hilarious thing i have ever seen in my life. for the past 5 minutes I have been on the floor dieing, my roomate thought I was high when he walked in on me rolling on the floor laughing. jack dempsey made my night with that performance

    Cowboy Lutrell!! LMAO :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl When he got up for the 6th time and grandpa jack hit him with a left knocking him through the ropes into the crowd i nearly teared up. This guy had to be the biggest joke of a fighter I have ever seen in my life. If thats what you want to call him. I literally think promoters happened to find this random big redneck pitching hay in his farm and were like "do you want to step in the ring, we will pay you good money". Cowboy Lutrell was 236lb of Farming bulk, but watching the guy stand their trying to fight and throw punches on film made chuck wepner look like joe louis. Checkout Cowboy Lutrells boxing stance(sticking his head out at dempsey bending over with his hands by his knees. Hey Cowboy your not plowing a field, your boxing!!!! :lol: :lol:.

    Cowboy Luttrell was a professional wrestler. By the way, Tony Galento and Archie Moore fought pro wrestlers also.


    Also, Nat Fleischer was the referee.

    Lutrell was a wrestler who had thrown a punch at Dempsey whilst Jack was refereeing one of his bouts. There was a heated exchange and the fight was made

    In the clip I have you get a snippet of an interview Nat did with Jack in the changing room and you can hear Dempseys squeaky voice. It was the first time I'd heard him speak and it gave me a chuckle

    Lutrell made repeated atempsts to provoke Jack Dempsey into a fight so that he could market himself as "the man who knocked out Jack Dempsey".

    Eventualy Dempsey got fed up and gave him what he wanted.

    BIG DEE HERE= Once again this shows that SuzieQ 49 doesn`t know boxing history if he doesn`t know that Cowboy Luttrell was a wrestler and not a fighter. Dempsey was making extra money refereeing a pro wrestling match
    when Luttrell huld off and slugged Jack Dempsey in the mouth. Dempsey went after him and it took the other wrestler to get him off of Luttrell.
    Dempsey challenged Luttrell to a real fight on holds barred, Wrestler vs Boxer.
    Dempesy nailed him right off the bat and by the end of things Dempesy had held him up to punish Luttrell and punish him Dempsey did. Breaking Luttrell`s
    nose and dislocating his jaw. Dempsey`s punching power was in view for all to see as he really put it to Luttrell for disrespceting him in the wrestling
    match.
