The greatest H2H fighter Joe Louis beat?

JJW.. but you guys knew that already.. right? lol

 

Walcott,Baer and Schmeling

 

Braddock>Walcott

 

:huh I've got to disagree with this. He clearly didn't do as well as Walcott did against Louis. I think Walcott would have beat up Braddock in a fight, probably a wide decision.

 

He's not being serious BIG Flea is just trying to bait me.. but it won't work.. :covers ears and says there's no place like home.. there's no place like home:

 

He was fighting Louis in his prime, and showed the canny counter abilities early on when he decked Louis, again, a prime version.

Like Walcott he had his moment in the sun when having already had a career, and a pretty spotty one at that.

He doesn't have Walcotts feet, no. He played more into Louis' game and did as well as Walcott did in their second fight, in terms of the result.

If he'd faced the Louis of the first Walcott fight he'd have his share of moments I'm sure.

 

I am serious. Why would I care to bait you? My opinions on Walcott aren't based around yours pal.

 

YOu can't be serious... Braddock is now better than Walcott... I'm still thinking you're joking.. By the way...he didn't do as well as JJW.. ya know.. beating Louis and all

 

Since you're serious.. why not make a thread about it and a poll.. See what others think... Braddock > than Walcott.. BWAHAHAHHAHAAHH. You're right about one thing.. Thankfully your opinion on Walcott isn't based around mine or most people for that matter. That is a good thing

 

That is a prety good argument for Schmeling being better than Walcott, but I can't extend it to Braddock.

 

Louis was still pretty damn incredible when fighting Walcott, it just so happens that Walcott used his movement and picked his spots to avoid Louis' combinations.

Louis didn't have the chance to adapt and come back with an improved game plan, like he does in all of his rematches. He caught Braddock with a good shot and ended it right there. If he did have a rematch, you better believe Braddock would've been stopped even sooner.

Well, stuff like this is entirely hypothetical. Braddock clearly couldn't take Louis' best shots. He didn't have Walcott's durability or his movement.

 

It's just silly to think Braddick would do any better.. he was sparked.. and the fight wasn't nearly as close. True Louis was more prime for that fight.. but walcott was clearly a big foil for Louis no matter when they fought him.

 

Corrupt; Why would I start a poll or care what anyone else thinks? And 'most people' don't agree with your over inflated perception of Walcott's ability either, unless they're as misinformed/easily swayed by aesthetic quality/******s.

Janitor, Louis was at his best after Schmeling beat him the first time.

Tommy; no, Louis wasn't still 'pretty damn incredible'. Comparing the bloated and past prime Louis with the version that won the title is not only nonsensical, it's spasticated.

Let's keep overrating Walcott though.
