Price: $200.00
JACK DEMPSEY
Signature of the World Heavyweight Champion, 1919-1926.
Signature: "Good Luck/Jack Dempsey", 5½x3¼ card. Billed as the
"Manassa Mauler" and the "toughest man ever to come out of the West," the
6-foot, 190-pound Dempsey met the 6-foot-6, 250-pound heavyweight champion Jess
Willard on July 4, 1919, at Toledo, OH. Dempsey won on a 3rd-round knockout.
During the next seven years, Dempsey defended his title only six times but made
a lot of money in the process. His fight against Frenchman Georges Carpentier
on July 2, 1921 produced boxing's first $1 million gate. He lost his title
to Gene Tunney on September 23, 1926 in a ten-round decision after which he
retired. Named the greatest fighter of the
half-century in a 1950 Associated Press poll, he won 60 professional fights, 49
by knockout; lost 7, 1 by knockout; and fought 7 draws, 5 no-decisions, and 1
no-contest. Fine condition.
