    Imagine Schmeling landing his right hand on Holmes and nothing happening!
    Ditto left hooks from B Baer and Galento!

    I'd pick Holmes over Deontay Wilder in a Joe Louis outfit.

    Did @cross_trainer find your login details, or were you just inspired by him?

    I don't know, assuming any of them lands a powerful punch on Holmes chin, I'm quite positive that Holmes would get hurt and possibly dropped.

    Schmeling needed a ton of shots to finally get Louis out of there.Do you agree Holmes had a better chin than Louis?

    Louis would beat Holmes, but I will not be giving a vote for the Bronze Bomber!
