    Jack was 62 when this was made in 1957 .
    Still looked good with clear alert poise and eyes . One of the greatest fighters ever .

    It takes a real man to smile about his rough times and deep dark past when it's brought up. Yet this was done without warning and in front of 10's of millions of people on live TV. Jack Dempsey scratched and clawed to survive when He was broke. This is why He never feared anyone or anything. IMO He ranks in the top three in my book as a boxer and even higher as a person. RIP Mr. Dempsey--You will always be the Champion among Champions .

Not just for the reason that he was a sports icon but for his rugged good looks. He was actually in some movies and did some stage work on Broadway but his acting ability (or lack thereof) aside, Hollywood Directors of the 20's and 30's used Dempsey's good looks as a template to hire both character actors and leading men. Most notably Clarke Gable. There was a character actor that played a gangster in the Three Stooges comedy series that could have passed as an identical twin to Jack.

Capone was (believe it or not ) initially attracted to Dempsey (as a lot of people were) by Dempsey's striking rugged good looks. They were such good friends that Capone offered to fix the second Tunney fight (which was held right in Capone's Chicago neighborhood - at Soldiers Field, Chicago). Dempsey being the man that he was declined Capone's entreaty stating that he wanted to win or lose honestly. Jack and Tunney were great friends and Jack admired Gene so much that his principles would not allow any offer from Capone to muddy their relationship. And as it turned out their fight was one of the greatest moments in American sports history. As Jack stated, fans of both men could claim that their man won.

    The great Jack Dempsey, good to see him get his due attention here (dempsey , who Tyson said was his role model as a fighting style). I've recently read alot about Gene Tunney. Tunney and Dempsey actually did have a good relationship in later years as men (both worked in NYC and connected over the later years and were friends). Tunney didn't show here, which was a shame, would have been perfect - but this absence was really a by product of his dis-trust of the writers and media. When Tunney de-throned Depsey for the Hvy Wt Championship, the news papers and sports writers hated it, they loved Dempsey, Jack was the whole package as a classic fighter, with a fighter's tough guy persona they loved to write about. Tunney however was reserved, bookish and enjoyed being around Writers and Academia, and the Writers all gave him alot of criticism and a hard time all through his career over that, Tunney never forgot, and resented it - and avoided writers and the public, and become publicly reclusive after retirement, focusing on his business career, and stayed well away from the public eye. Tunney was a good man, a solid dedicated family guy, an interesting guy, and a smart defensive analytical boxer who beat dempsey by studying and analyzing his style on files (which tunney really pioneered as a strategy), it's too bad really none of the sports writers in his day could perceive that, and didn't appreciate him for what he was.

    The great sportswriter ,Roger Khan captured the spirit of Dempsey in his classic biography of the champion of the "roaring twenties",aptly titled,"The Flame of Pure Fire,For reasons which are well known and need not be mentioned here,The champ was much more beloved during his post boxing career,than he ever was as "the manassa Mauler".My dad and his friends found it hard to reconcile the genial restauranteur ,with the terrifying prizefighter he had been.Life is about contradictions,right?

    Hi Dinah. Curious to know your interest in Jack's life. I have much to say but just wondering why a woman such as yourself is curious about a pugilist that won the heavyweight crown 101 years ago on July 44, 1919 in Toledo OH. Temp was 105 degrees and because Battling Nelson was supposed to have taken a bath in the lemonade to cool off ice water was selling at the event for the incredible price of 1 dollar a glass (Twenty dollars in today's money). Are you a writer a historian or an uber fan ? .
