Can Joe Louis realistically beat 1999 Lennox Lewis, '88 Mike Tyson and 67 Ali

He’d be a very live dog but those are arguably the 3 worst matchups possible for him

 

He'd have a nightmare time imho, unless he gets to choose Levi Billups version Lewis, Jake Paul version Tyson and Berbick version Ali. In that case he might sweep 3-0.

 

P2P Louis loses badly to all 3. He has a punchers chance of course but not a good one.
Might do the best with Ali cause he had the least power of the 3. Ali would trash him and stop him late. Tyson would be explosive and maybe end the quickest. Louis could do damage but Tyson would be like a 47 Walcott on steroids. Against prime Lewis it would be almost impossible. Much too big when combined with him also being a very good fighter.

 

He'd be badly outboxed by all of them like the first Schmeling fight.

Joe Louis would have to go all out and go straight in for the KO.

 

Agreed he’d have to make the greatest effort of his career to be beat any of them. With the kind of devil may care aggressiveness he’d leave himself open for blockbuster punches by Lewis and Tyson. For Ali it would be the counter right cross over the jab which is what Scmelimg meant when he famously said ‘I sees something’ and led to his victory. Ali was a master at that. See Zora Folley and George Foreman fights. It’s super stinging and has a cumulative impact.

 

Oh man, those three are terrible matchups for the Bomber.
Tyson and Lewis could actually KO him early .
