    Some great slow-mo footage of Louis, it's fine to see some of the finer points of his KO skills highlighted here. How about Louis advacning on the helpless Carnera while the referee momentarily dithers about the stoppage for a chilling moment?

    Although he has Arguello and Tyson for company, I don't think there is a better puncher with serious film in the can.

    Great footage, and a wonderful soundtrack Ennio Morricone's version of Amapola [Deborah's Theme] ,from Once Upon A Time In America. One of my favourite films! Thanks.

    What a great puncher Joe was, very compact punches, some travelling just a few inches.

    Joy to watch thanks for posting

    Awesome power. The fact most are in slow-mo shows the speed aswell. Most fighters could only dreem of having his composite punching skills, those shots and the accuracy, speed and power that comes with them.

    Welcome, those who said thanks.

    I don't know if you remember, mcvey, but those HW videos I posted a few weeks back contained the same track - and these videos are by the same guy.
