    Can Louis KO 11 become the TKO 6 of classic?

    Yes. There is a lot of smoke around the judges with Louis. They were for him. I dare anyone to watch Godoy vs Louis one and present their card. IMO Godoy won the decision.

    I think so and espn owns it. They showed plenty of footage. Louis was too slow. Walcott really makes him look bad. Sometimes I wonder if fans here watch the films. For example there is a Holmes vs Louis thread here. IMO Holmes would win. Louis had slow and predictable feet and a pourous defense when matched with a skilled and fleet footed boxer.

    ...if i've got this right, kurupt, you're using a scorecard for a fight you've never seen...to prove that another fight you haven't seen....was scored incorrectly?

    Don't forget about using a score criteria that hadn't been invented at the time.

    :lol: I love kurupt like a brother but of all the debates on classic his is the most insane.

    Frankenfrank's policies on p4p ranking make more sense.

    Actually Luf, nothing is worse than FrankenFranks p4p list. Now, I was kinda trying to mess aroudn with you two by the posting of this thread. I haven't denied a little baiting in good fun. However, since this thread is being likened to Franks worst... let's actually be serious here and examine the facts. First, if you review press row and how they had the fight scored.... you would find an overwhelming amount had Walcott ahead.. some even well ahead. How then was Louis ahead AGAIN on a scorecard of a judge? How is this not a legitmate question and oddity? Just because we can't see the full fight means what exactly? You would then have to say.. well I believe all of press row was wrong.. That seems like an even bigger leap than saying they were most likely right. That is the probable thing to do. So, if it's most likely Walcott was ahead... whether you can view the fight or not, how does it makes sense for Louis to be ahead on a card? It doesn't, and we don't need to see the fight ot know that makes zero sense do we?

    I bet if you saw the full fights you'd award more rounds to Louis than Jersey.

    Lufcrazy, Have you seen Godoy vs Louis 1? Just curious. My guess is you have not.

    I've seen bits but not the full fight.

    So after you watched the full fight did you conclude that godoy was in fact the best heavyweight in the world?
