[GIF] The Speed and Power of a Joe Louis Punch

Who was he fighting there ?

 

Because of the speed with which he could engage his entire body into a punch, his windows were larger and his power more concussive. It's almost like ballet, such coordination, and largely unteachable, at least to anywhere near his level.

 

Jersey Joe Walcott

 

Thanks !!

 

Jersey Joe Walcott (Arnold Cream).....a known "Gringo", back in the late 1940's?

 

It's the second Pastor fight with a blind referee.

 

That Right hand traveled maybe a foot before contact. No exaggerated movement. Nothing telegraphed, getting almost every once of his weight behind it with proper leverage . A Picasso painting in a boxing ring.

 

In what way Mac?

 

IMO...Joe Louis was the perfect puncher...

 

I think he let the fight go on for too long Pastor had no chance and was just a punching bag.

 

Looked the part but should have done more damage with basically a free shot.

 

Oh I see, I thought it must have been his scorecard at the time of the stoppage!
Yes it was totally one sided, it’s not as though Pastor had the punch to do anything about it.

 

Slow motion videos of Louis punching, remind me of slow motion videos of a cobra striking!
