    I say Bowe, but if he can't get Dempsey out of there, Bowe tended to take lots of punches. It could get interesting.

    I'll take Dempsey just because I want to fit in for a change.

    The current vote is 5 to 1 in favour of Bowe, so you're doing the opposite of fitting in by picking Dempsey.

    But guys were simply tougher back in the 20's. Nevermind that Dempsey weighed 185 pounds, size doesn't matter and boxing hasn't evolved. Everyone knows Dempsey beat 6'6 Jess Willard so he would not have any trouble with Bowe. Lol
