Beat me to it, Herol!:lol:
There used to be someone on here called Glover, then there was Tommo. These posters disappeared and Spermite eventually replaced them. It's...
Louis beats Spoon. Holmes outpoints Conn.
That being said, what do you reckon would happen?
That's fair enough, Foxy. Lewis was big AND very good.
Max fought Louis once. Buddy fought him twice, knocking him through the ropes in the first fight. Louis caned both of them.
How can you prove that Lewis hit 3 times as hard as, say, Max Baer? Where is the scientific basis for this claim?
Foxy, I have no problem with you or anyone else picking Ali to beat Louis; I can see either guy winning on a given night. I agree 100% with you on...
It was snappier and harder, though. And more consistent.
I saw an interview with him recently; he said Shavers and Norton punched harder than Tyson, which surprised me(Norton, anyway).
**** me! Ken Norton had a better jab than Joe Louis, now!
Would Larry Holmes have beaten Mike Tyson if the two fought at their peaks, or did Tyson have the style to always beat Larry?
Louis wins, in my opinion. Each has style traits that the other can exploit, though.
I usually take fighters' comments with a pinch of salt. Tyson at 20 was much better than Ali at 20. As to the match up discussed, I tend to agree...
Should have had Tim playing Sonny in the Ali film.:good
