    Sulllivan would have never fought Jackson. He knew what was good for him.

    Corbett was white, and therefore a bum...

    sullivan would have been taken by corbett, slavin, jackson or maybe even goddard in the context of when and what shape he was in.

    prime sullivan beats every one of their primes.
