Short History of Dempsey as Ring Champion
Jack Dempsey born July 28 1895 in Manassa Colorado rose from modest roots to world heavyweight champion in rapid fashion. He knocked out Fred Fulton to set up a Willard title bout and defeated Jess Willard to claim the crown in 1919. His notable knockouts include Brennan Smith Levinsky Elk Flynn and Ketchell. Dempsey’s Carpentier victory at Boyle's Thirty Acres is called the battle of the century earning enormous payoffs. He fought Tammy Konaaft in his only bout after Carpentier and remains undefeated in multiple linked bouts with few draws or decisions. He grew up in a large family in Manassa later moving to Lake City California.
