    Jack Johnson definitely deserved to win and I don't think Jeffries could ever have bested Jim Johnson.

    " It was a teenage wedding ,and the old folks wished them well":good

    We could also have Jimmy Johnson the MSG promoter ?

    Jack Johnson beat Topeka Jack Johnson on 25th of Nov 1920.

    The same day he kod 230lbs Frank Owens,in 6rds.
    Jack was 41, of course, these too might have been robberies.
    Jack got the benefit of lots of verdicts because he was so popular :lol:
