    Awesome quality indeed!
    Louis is fighting his old friend John Henry Lewis, who at the time was already losing the sight of his left eye.....It was said that the Brown Bomber made sure that his friend didn’t suffer unnecessarily, ending the bout quickly in the first round.....

    Great stuff as always Reznick!

    By any chance do you remember a knockout by Joe Louis where he left hooked the inside of his opponents left hand to open up a path for the overhand right KO? I tried googling it but got nothing.

    Help a brotha out classic!

    Thanks a bunch, I always loved that KO but couldn't remember who it was.

    It's been bugging me for weeks.

    Thanks Brixton.

    I found this in the British Pathe archive under an obscurely titled video.
