where would joe louis figure in todays heavyweight division ?

So Louis is too small but Sanders and Byrd are...what? Byrd was outboxing Vitali and Sanders knocked Wlad out, and Louis is a much, much, much better fighter than either Byrd or Sanders.

 

First, he'd certainly be a cruiser now. But if he made the leap, the only fighter that would beat him would be Vitali. He would control him with him jab and wouldn't be as 'hurtable' as his brother. In my mind, Louis 100% KOs Wlad. Wlad would control the early stages of the fight, but Joe was skilled enough and quick enough to get inside his man, an he certainly hit hard enough to more than trouble Wlad who doesn't have the greatest chin. I see him stopping him sometime around the 7th.

Haye is quick enough to make it semi interesting early, but he is ultimately stopped, as is Adamek.

 

louis would get ****ed up big time......Just by the punching power alone, maybe when joe was at his bigger weight he could handle those shots, but just imgaine throwing a guys like hays in there when he weighed 190 to 200, or holyfield, you people might blah blah some bull ****, but now way do they abosorb those punches well.

Take ruiz vs jone, when ruiz landed a few good punches jones was not a happy camper, that is cause he was blown up, if he was at 190 it would of even been less pleasent. And ruiz won several rounds,

 

Max schemelling completly out boxed louis in there first fight, a well favored louis. Just imagine what wlad would do.....

Don't you know that you cannot argue with Klitlickers by now . . . its better leave them in their fantasy world, where the only thing that matters is size and this is the diamond era of the heavyweight division.

REAL fans of boxing know whats real:bbb

 

These kinda threads never fail to produce some comedy

 

I agree skill matters a lot but so does size. And the Klitschkos have both. There is a reason why they have weight divisions.
