Why didn't Jack Dempsey ever fight a black fighter again after John Lester Johnson?

Internet > Dempsey

 

'So what you are saying to me , " I am touchy about Jack Dempsey " cause he is dead, but the ESB posters who NEVER rest tearing his legacy down
should have free reign to besmirch Jack Dempsey, but I cannot defend what I PERCEIVE in my soul is a distortion of the truth, CANNOT defend him on ESB ? Sir, you got the wong poster...Yes Dempsey is DEAD, but the truth is always eternal...I'll DEFEND what I think is true sir, whether you like it or not, or whether a fighter is dead or not.. Good day sir... '

I didn't edit in time. What I mean is we're just talking here.

 

No way. Who did it beat?

 

Dempsey fought a black man?

 

Wealthy enough to pay lawyers to keep him out of prison too.

 

So you are saying that some of the guys Louis fought in his bum of the month tour were better then those black fighters you mentioned hmmmmm

 

Read my following post. I'm a Murderer's Row fan, man. I'm no fan of cherry pickers either.

 

And by the way, Dempsey cherry picked. He knew Wills, Norfolk & company were tougher and that they wouldn't stack up enough money to worth the risk (bad risk and reward outcome, you know). Took the easiest fights for the biggest paydays. Wasn't the first and wouldn't be the last. As cynical as it sounds, that's how the game is played.
