Tunny could have been an even better light-heavyweight than he was an excellent heavyweight. Most people hear the name Tunney and think of the famous Dempsey-Tunney fights. They don't realize that Tunney was the American light-heavyweight champion for three years. Tunney defeated Battling Levinsky for the American crown and then lost the title to Harry Greb. He regained the crown and defended one more time before concentrating on the heavyweight division.
