    Even if Dempsey did win I think he would struggle to KO Holyfield because of Holy`s chin and I feel Evander had the power to stop Dempsey also.

    Agree. Holyfield took an excellent punch but even more he had strong recuperative powers and as we all know nobody had more heart and desire than the Real Deal. He is always coming back punching.

    Jack Dempsey animal, savage attack, Dempsey roll, relentless brutal mauler, most savage fighter in sports history, Gene Tunney GOAT, Dempsey too brutal fighter, extreme ****ing savagery, this that blah blah blah.

    Honestly, Dempsey is more of a media figure than an actual professional. He's absurdly overhyped... just because he beat some dimwit oversized tomato can with fat rolls everywhere in Jess Willard, he automatically doesn't "kill" a TOP 5 ATG HW in Holyfield.

    facts why would anybody say he beats holy wouldnt even make it 5 mins way to reckless

    I seen that jess match the way its talked of would have people believe it was impressive jess was trash anybody could do that from 70s-90s and do it with a couple punches and its over
