I would add he also raised a United States senator:

You know I really like Dempsey...I recently finished Roger Kahn's biography of him...I just said some of that stuff to get under Il Bugiardo's skin. I will believe all of the good stuff about him and none of the bad.

Was Tunney one of the most unlikely boxing champions?

He could have been a senator like his son.


Most of the press wasn't taken with him because he would have rather read a book than talk to them.

James J. Jeffries was 'too big' for little Rocky Marciano.

Would have eventually worn him down, and swept the last 5-Rounds to win a 15-Round Decision.

Rocky hits James with everything, busting him up through the first 7-Rounds, but the 'strongest'
Heavyweight ever would out-muscle Rocky over the second-half of the bout, and toss him around
like a 'bale-of-hay'.

Announced Fight Attendance............. 217,302 {100x Greater than Liston vs. Clay II}

So you know the exact attendance of a fight that never took place

I know there is a Planet called 'Mars', but I've never been there.

So Il Duce's argument. There is a Mars...therefore Marciano vs Jeffires would've drawn exactly 217,302 people.

Rock Solid logic

I know your game now Il Duce. You keep talking until you dig yourself into a hole, and rather than trying to climb out of that hole...you just ignore the fact that you're in a hole at all and start talking about something else.

Weak.

I still read your posts, but your own bias' make your boxing knowledge seem lesser than it is. I do believe you know your fair share of Boxing history and so forth, but you can't let your bias against one fighter go long enough to be able to show this knowledge that you have.
