There were many people that people may say could bet the person of the decade, one of them would be Jack Dempsey. As shown above, Jack Dempsey’s real is William Harrison Dempsey. He was born in 1896 to Hyrum Dempsey in Manassa, Colorado. His father was a poor timber man and a miner so it was rough for Jack when he was growing up. When Jack was just a mere sixteen years old, he had become homeless. But in a matter of a year, he pursued his dream of being a boxer. He became extremely good and became a professional during that year. Few people were able to keep standing after their bout. In nineteen-seventeen, he returned to box with a manager named Jack Hearns. His story will soon to become a “Rags to riches” story.
