Sullivan never fought Peter Jackson, and made some silly comments when Jack Johnson became champ... which I assume is what you are talkng about...but when he toured the country in his earlier years he foght all comers, black and white.
And the majority of the fights recorded today on his record were gloved. For the simple fact that prize fights were illegal,but atheletic displays (with gloves) weren't for most of his career.
I dont hold John L up as a moral example, but he wasnt a coward and he didnt duck anyone.
