    Not forgetting that Coley starred as Joe Louis in the Bomber's life story a few years later

    Coley Wallace has always been a mystery to me. Was he an underachiever or over exposed because of his amateur victory over Rocky and his resemblance to the Brown Bomber. He portrayed Louis 4 times, the last in Raging Bull.

    I never realised he played Louis so many times,Nightrain. Where and when did he play the great man in between his bio and Raging Bull ?
