He was way above his time form what i have seen of him his boxing skills were way ahead of the curve. I mean i didn't see anyone that could box and move like him from that early of a time period to be honest with you.
Tunney was good but Joe Louis would have beaten him. Gene may have caused some problems but Joe would have found him in the end.
