    joe louis bum of the month club.we all know billy almost turned the trick against louis so how would billy do against these opponents? galento knocked joe down, simon took joe to the 13th(god knows how)some others gave joe some marginal efforts, so how does billy stack up against these opponents?

    Well there was over 2o of them so you want us to go through every one? That will take time, what i will say is this, i have nothing but praise for conn and he is very possibly the best light heavyweight of all time head to head.

    Conn was the boss...and could have quite concievably beaten any lightheavy of history. And to answer your thread question, yes, Conn would have beaten Galento, Simon and most of the other "bums" as well.
