45 Seconds
Pugilist Dempsey took himself about the country on an exhibition tour, dallying with young hopefuls. At Memphis he entered the ring with one "Dutch" Seiffert, an Arkansan of 225 poundage. Seiffert in 21 matches had never been knocked off his feet. His friends and relatives came to view the exhibit. In 45 seconds Dutch Seiffert was "out."
