Dempsey is the devil himself when
~ starts to fight and he starts right
off the reel. so i don't think that the
Frenchman will last very long. 1t
doesn't matter much how many
punches he fires at Jack because
Dempsey will brush them aside as
easily as IL he were boxing with an
amateur and when he gets the first
one home the people will begin to
leave their seats and go home.
