The great HW champ Jack Dempsey although not a woman beater was a professional rapist in brothels.

From what I got from the other message board, Jack Dempsey was paid to rape and devirginize girls in brothels. There was an Showtime show talking about it years back. Plus an biography of Dempsey talks about it.

Wow as a big Hagler fan I was disappointed to see him on the list, but you're right!

I knew Dempsey was a hobo and pimped his wife and did not fight in the army and would not fight a black fighter as champion but otherwise he was an OK fella.

[Howlin Mad Missy]

Yup, i can laugh I'm never having kids.

[Howlin Mad Missy]

guys get raped too

[marbleheadmaui]

I suspect if we did a little research that list would easily double in legth with fighters whose names we'd all recognize.

None of those names were new to me or surprises.

Boxers are not accustomed to settling disputes with a card and box of chocolates, ya know?

[Hornfinger]

guys get raped too

yes by women like you.

Not that Demspey needs me to defend him, but a couple of things.
1. Dempsey was a hard, hard man who came from brutal circumstances.
2. He tried to enlist for WWI and was turned down, the slacker charge has been discredited. In WWII I think he enlisted in the Coast Guard at 45 when he didn't have to.
3. He signed twice to fight Harry Wills but nobody would promote the fight. The Johnson-Jeffries riots scarred the sport for a long time.

Now Jack Dempsey was about as far from a saint as a man can be. But certain myths prevail about him that as near as I can determine simply aren't true.
