    Alright guys do you think that Dempsey would have made it in this era? He was a great brawler and created the Dempsey Roll. Dempsey had great technique and etc. Plus I think he could have beaten the Klitschokos and etc. So, tell me what you think.

    P.S. Do you think Dempsey could have beaten Tyson? I think so, because in a way Dempsey would Tyson's teacher.

    one tough mother but somewhat overrated h2h. too few defences to really gauge his true atg status.

    vitali has a fair chance to beat him, wlad gets koed in 1, Tyson probably can manage him.

    No, he's not. He thinks Floyd Patterson woulda stopped Wlad in 1, and put Haye to sleep with a feeler jab.:lol::lol::lol:

    he woulda been busy feasting on Haye, Bruno, Hide, Lewis, Fury, DelBoy, Joshua, and the rest of the Brits to ever get a chance to fight Huck Ledbdev or USS. :patsch:patsch:patsch

    If he were born from the subsequent gene pool and come out at 6 foot 2 or 3, 240ish version of his prior self, he'd be a nightmare of epic proportions.

    He would have an even easier time if he put on 10 pounds of muscle.

    Of course. They aren't many, but there are the special few of light heavyweights, cruiserweights, and even middleweights that would wreak havoc in any heavyweight era. Dempsey had as good chance as Sanders. This era in particular lacks aggressive heavyweights and Dempsey is one of the most aggressive heavyweights of all time!
