Gloves were too small back then to really conceal much in them....There would have been some sort of damage to Dempseys hand....I have heard about 5 or 6 different versions on what he might of had,,,One even stated his hand was in concrete......There was no explaniation on why he beat Willard to a pulp so they had to make something up.....Fact was Willard was out of shape...Jack was mean...jack was hungry literally....Jess and his people thought too much of themselves
the book was by ali's cutman and he was pretty certain that him and a few others watched a tape of JD giving the nail to his corner at the end of the round. its called the 15 greatest rounds of boxing.

Tom where is this film? I know the book and I know what was said but that is not what I am reffering to....If it was a railroad spike as some claim it would have been big enopugh to be openly spotted....Do you know how big one of those are?...Someone would of had to unlace the gloves..fit it in there and Dempsey would not have been able to make a fist...any other nail would have only done damage it sticking straight out to poke holes in the skin not add to the power of the punch....Willard would of had cuts that matched such wounds...
Well the cutman was claiming him and 3 other major boxing figures saw the tape given to him by some other guy, and he walked off with it and they never saw it again. Just read that book it talks about it in there. he claims he isnt lying and it was on a reel tape or something.
