    A while back, possibily when this thread was started. Someone on Youtube posted a long video. In which he made the case for Joe Louis being the greatest boxer of all time. He made the claim that people around today are 2 inches taller now than they were when Louis was around. If true Louis would be 6' 4" and would likely have a 78" reach. He wouldn't be the biggest heavyweight ever. With that frame and about 215-225 Lbs. He's going to be hard to beat.
