Description

1933 Sport Kings Jack Dempsey #17 SGC EX 5. Jack Dempsey was an icon of the Roaring Twenties who was just as popular, if not more popular, than Babe Ruth. Dempsey was a crowd favorite and sold out arenas wherever he went. On September 23, 1926 Dempsey fought Gene Tunney. Dempsey lost his title that day but the two met again on September 22, 1927 in Chicago in a famous fight called "The Long Count." Tunney was knocked down in the 7th round, but Dempsey did not go to a neutral corner, delaying the referee's count. Tunney survived and won the decision three rounds later. Just like many Dempsey opponents, this card is a knock-out. Graded SGC EX 5.
