    I have an inkling that Tunney would also beat @Johnny_B

    Jack was an athletic reliant fighter that was extremely rusty facing a scientific peaking fighter. He’s lucky he lasted the 10 rounds.

    True grit got Dempsey thru. If the fight had been 15 rounds, then I'm afraid Jack would be stopped.
