    Louis was in no way skilled like Mayweather/Toney. For his time and compared to the stiffs he was fighting; he looked superior, but that is because of how unskilled his opponets were.

    :lol: middleweights beat joe louis, apparently.

    maybe you should consider watching a different sport, like nascar maybe? cause you don't know **** about boxing

    if you think the fighters of today are more skilled than those of the 20's-60's then you are ******ed. they fight less than 3 times a year at the championship level. they spar less. less fighters. less gyms. less credible trainers. boxing overall has declined so far in significance in this country it's absurd. you call the fighters in b&w videos unskilled because you're ignorant as ****.

    Louis destroyed the fighters who came to him the most, and Haye fits that category. He would knock him out, easily. Wlad has a good chance because of his movement, and reach advantage, but his skillset in comparison to Louis's simply isn't deep enough for him to win.

    We have superior athletes these days like Arreola, Kwame Brown, Louis/Jordan wouldn't stand a chance.

    That's what the idiots would have you believe. That Marciano could compete with Tyson, or Louis could beat a superheavyweight like Wlad or Lewis. Not a chance.

    Great comparison, dingbat. Louis retired in the 1950's, Jordan retired in 2002. :patsch

    Wlad and Vitali would beat him within an inch of his life. No exaggeration, they might kill the man :deal

    What the hell is a blind man doing posting on ESB?

    Do you have someone read you the posts, and then your respond or do you have some sort of magical perception that allows you to view things through your mind despite not being physically able to see things?

    Because, I have two functional eyeballs, and they allow me to compare and contrast, and while Klitschko is sharper than Primera, although he lacks uppercuts, they have almost identical styles and stances.

    What's your point?, I used that example to make it easier for the likes of you to understand. The current crop of fat, useless HW's wouldn't dominate any era.
