A highly technical boxer, Tunney had a five-fight rivalry with Harry Greb in which he won three, drew once, and lost once. He also knocked out Georges Carpentier and defeated Jack Dempsey twice; first in 1926 and again in 1927.

He turned pro in 1915 with a TKO over Bobby Dawson, a far more experienced boxer. When World War I erupted, Tunney joined the Marines. Back in the United States, Tunney continued his ring success. In 1921, he stopped Soldier Jones on the undercard of the Dempsey-Carpentier fight in Jersey City.
