Could Joe Louis beat Mike Tyson?

Why don't we call fighters "Battling" today like Battling Deontay Wilder?

 

Louis didn't have the chin to withstand Mike for long. He'd be destroyed very, very early.

 

Little fat guys with pot bellies knocked him on his arse. Billy Conn, a light fisted super-middleweight (by today's standards), had him hurt.

I think Louis had a glass chin and Tyson KO's him very quickly.

 

man vs child, those ww2 era American military guys were a vastly different breed, even Cus thought Louis could whoop his boy

look at how Louis immediately upped the pace and finished Galento in quick order after Galento knocked him down, Tyson pretty much only had one layer, one pace, there were most likely layers of Louis we never got to see because no one he fought brought it out of him, he would turn it up just a little bit and they were done

 

Yes he could.

But I would favour Tyson to stop Louis in the first five.

If it's still happening after the seventh, I favour Louis.

And if it goes past twelve, I'd favour Louis by KO.

 

Razor Ruddock was a murderous puncher against bums, he couldn't even put away a washed Tommy Morrison. Bonecrusher Smith was the best fighter he knocked out. Louis took punches from both the Baer brothers who hit very hard and Max Schmeling who was a vicious counter-puncher. Buddy Baer has a 93% knockout-win ratio and 30 first round knockouts which is higher than Mike Tyson, George Foreman and even Jack Dempsey - he probably has the most 1st round ko's in heavyweight history and was included in the list of all time greatest punchers, he knocked Louis out of the ring and hit him with many punches throughout the fight and he was definitely a harder puncher than Razor Ruddock. Louis ate punches from Marciano (a harder hitter than Lewis) at the age of 37 and still gave him trouble in the fight, he had to be knocked clean out and didn't quit like Tyson did. Louis definitely had the better chin. 'Pulling a victory out of the jaws of defeat' has everything to do with your chin, it means you can take a beating and bounce back - a fighters 'heart' is obviously connected which how much punishment/discomfort he can withstand it isn't purely a mental thing, what kind of logic is that?

 

Thanks for giving me my daily dose of laughter.

 

Bro, stop embarrassing yourself.
Marciano a bigger puncher than Lewis

 

Louis doesn't even last 30 seconds against Tyson.

 

Lewis hits harder I guess because of his size right? You are clearly blind. There is no comparison in terms of knockout power between the two of them, how many times did Lewis knockout anybody's teeth or send his opponents to hospital? How many guys with great chins did he even knockout? You don't know ****.

 

Go look on YouTube don't just take my word for it.

 

What evidence/reason do you have for that claim?

 

Their's not ONE opponent of Tyson's who failed to last 30 seconds. Not one.

 

Louis will be the first.

 

Tyson is faster, stronger and way more skilled. Louis won't even know what hit him as he wakes up in the ER room.
