Dempsey knew Lydon from his early days in the Tonopah-Goldfield are, when Dempsey roomed (batched) with Lydon's brother. Dempsey is known to have said that the two toughest fights of his life were against a local fighter, Johnny Sudenberg, with whom Freck Lydon trained. Lydon was involved in law enforcement in Tonopah for many years. If a troublemaker saw Lydon put on his gloves when making an arrest, the troublemaker knew he was in for a tough time!.
