You're right, the Jeffries fight was a bigger financial 'event', but I would argue that the Burns fight was the most 'meaningful' as it was the first time that a non white man became the world heavyweight champion.Johnson v Jeffries was even bigger.

I think that "event" caused massive deaths of black people and guaranteed that no Black man would fight for the title for 37 years.You're right, the Jeffries fight was a bigger financial 'event', but I would argue that the Burns fight was the most 'meaningful' as it was the first time that a non white man became the world heavyweight champion.Johnson v Jeffries was even bigger.
