And Sullivan getting himself into shape and outlasteing Jake Kilrain over 75 rounds doesn't show other certain aspects of his character?

Stop trolling

From what I've read, Sullivan was never sober. He'd be a victim of Haye's overhand right real quick.

The longest wrestling match (Greco Roman) lasted 12hrs in the
1912 Olympics, does that mean that those men who were
part timers, were better athletes than todays amateur wrestlers.

Helio Gracie fought the longest MMA match in the 1950s it went
for 3hrs and 45mins, does that mean he is a better athlete than
todays men ?

I can walk all day but sprint for minutes, and in between I shall
never know.

But yeah.. I am trolling. Ill go grab some Bert Sugar and re write
my prediction.

John L Sullivan KO 1 with left hook, after a barrel of ale and a
mutton broth.
