    Yes, tons. I've often thought Louis was a heavyweight version of Alexis.

    So similar in style pfp arguello would be a 6-5 heavy but pfp wouldnt be as quick as Louis, id give the chin department to arguello (slightly) and Power equal,but im surprised lot of fans dont notice the similarities.

    only in the execution of certain punches...Alex put his weight behind them and could through some shorter power shots...Louis was more fluid though

    Alexis was alot more stiff than Louis, only similarity I think is that dynamite right hand.

    Tito and Louis have more similarities

Oh yeah not to change subject but I always thought that chick on your Avatar was cute as hell i use to think that was ur girl or something,thats why i never said nothing.:lol: But I looked up the name of that stokke chick damn shes hot and I was surprise to find out that shes well known on the net. Where are the nude flics of her?:hey

    They have some kind of ban from posting pics of her, the Dad filed a lawsuit or something. Im hoping she becomes an olympic contender and then we all win.

    I actually think the opposite, though I too only see minor similarities, moreso in their ring demeanor and the way they went about things than their actual stylistic and rhythmic connections.
