    You have to love the Jeffries detractors.

    "He only won fights because he was durable, and he wasn't realy that durable anyway"

    the old, tiny and infirmed do not require the highest level of durability. i think a younger Fitz finishes the job he started in the first fight.

    The only job Fitz started in the first fight was getting the snot beaten out of him.

    Could you perhaps mean the second fight?

    If you studied my logically consistent, erudite posts, you would note that I rank Johnson as the 10th Greatest Heavyweight Ever through a complicated matrix of logarithms weighing 112 attributes of Heavyweight boxing.

    But as noted previously, Johnson usually played it safe, was a conservative fighter who paced himself well. He was not a KO artist. I think he could achieve the feat against Jim if he were properly motivated (a la Ketchell) but he would not be one of the first I would pick to do so.
