    The Brown Bomber had a lot of problems with another nimble guy named Billy. Could BJS beat Louis?

    Saunders just beat the great Lemieux so he beats everyone from any era now

    Billy Joe will beat the **** out of the Charlo Bros or Crawford if he wants to quit draining himself 30lbs. But HW’s present or past... nah. This is more a job for...

    Louis never faced a Brit. His opponents were 99% American.. like most of the fighters then. #practicallyadomesticamericansport.

    Joe Lewis was known for having atrocious China Chin and spent alot of his career crawling in canvas.
    Joe is old days Amir Khan.

    How much did Conn weigh when he fought Louis, I don`t think Saunders could carry that weight well at all and Louis didn`t fight like Lemieux when they fought and he won, Louis was also very hard to hit, Conn took more risks to hit Louis because had to Saunders would have to land a lot more than he did vs Lemieux and that`s when Louis would KO him.

    LOL! He never got knocked down by a super middle weight and certainly not a light heavy or a welter! WTF!

    Louis beat Tommy Farr who was welsh, there weren`t any other top brit heavies at that point and Britain wasn`t a top nation in terms of boxing back then, being domestic in America almost meant the world because all the world champs back then were American, not one Brit, I don`t know who the next British world champ was after Louis retired, Cooper came close to knocking Ali out but it wasn`t a title fight because Ali was just on the way up and Ali trained down to 214lbs to fight Cooper in the rematch because he needed more speed than he had in the first fight and he was awesome in that match up better than Saunders at his respective weight any way! LOL!

    Louis was old when he fought Marciano and he still did better than Saunders would of! Think Rocky hits a LITTLE harder than Billy my friend!

    Louis was out of Lemieux class and punched harder than any super middle in history, Ray Robinson said Louis had the fastest hands he`d ever seen and he was the greatest combo puncher of all time, Lem didn`t throw one combo the entire fight!
