    :lol::lol:

    Something tells me even that wouldn't be good enough for Pachilles. :good

    You'd probably have to put out a double page spread advert in the center of The Wall Street Journal denouncing Jack Dempsey and every white fighter he ever fought as worthless garbage.

    Dangerous fight for both men, Dempsey had hands of steel and started early and could hurt Joe early, problem with Louis is that he had the best 2 fisted power punch combination's ever and for the most part except when younger and the developmental state and once when older, Louis always got up to win. Louis was one of the best finishers ever I think Marciano and Dempsey were up there but The Brown Bomber was number 1 with KO's over the tall,short,Heavy,Fat,muscular and slim......Joe Louis is my # 1 heavy so I think he prevails but Jack was hands of stone before Duran and would be dangerous and exciting and a definite KO ending....Louis by KO in 5-10

    I dont talk about Wills at any length of all, with any opinon of him at all, shitnose. All i do is state the following facts

    1) Dempsey wouldnt fight blacks
    2) Wills was the standout number 1 contender
    3) Dempsey ducked Wills

    I guarantee you wouldn't be making anything like the same sort of stink if you were to replace Wills with anyother white challenger - for instance did Dempsey avoid Greb because he was white??:lol:

    1) Dempsey would and did fight blacks dumbass
    2) Wills was without doubt the number 1 contender - again proves nothing - Riddick Bowe trashed a belt rather than face Lewis but I strongly beleive that if he had faced Lewis at that time he would've beaten Lennox anyway - go figure.
    3) Dempsey didn't duck Wills - he signed to fight him twice
