I was going to say Foreman by decapitation, but you are right it would be a massacre

Foreman was sorta new generation of destroyers like Dempsey, bigger, stronger, tougher. It would be similar to how George dealt with Frazier or Norton.

No man with a swarming style was ever going to last with George Foreman. Dempsey would lose.

LOL! If it goes that long, I'd give Dempsey a shot at it. But it wouldn't.

George Foreman would send Jack Dempsey to cruiserweight where he really belongs.

Yeah, imagine if Dempsey ever fought a guy who was 6'6 and weighed 250 pounds. The fight wouldn't have lasted until the fourth round.

No need to imagine. He fought Willard, yes?

Foreman would obliterate Dempsey.

EDIT: Oh, you were being sarcastic. My bad.
