[GIF] Tony Galento hits Louis with two monster left hooks

Louis took the shot well considering that it caught him cold. You can see that he didn't brace for the impact at all. The second hook didn't have the pop the first one did.

Louis took the first punch well, but I am a bit surprised that he was caught so easily. It was quite a wide hook, and telegrapHed. I suppose he was just human like the rest of us.

Love the clips. Great job.

 

Have to agree as well. Galento was a tough customer for a few rounds though. He lost to all the best men he faced, but one had to respect his power and awkward, brawling style.

 

I arbitrarily picked Tua's name because he was short , stocky, and known for his left hook ,don't wet yourself over it.atsch

 

He was the Mayorga of his day, in many respects. :good

(Comparable personalities outside the ring, and with moments of proving to be surprisingly formidable inside despite reputations for crudeness...to say nothing of their shared affinity for lighting up stogies during training camp)

 

Not a bad comparison.:good

 

First one was a great punch (putting aside the fact that it was cartoonishly telegraphed). Galento's weight was all wrong in the second hook though and I would be surprised if it carried nearly as much power.

 

Galento had absolutely murderous power, and it tells when you look at the reaction of his opponents.

I have never seen anybody shake Louis like that, and he fought a lot of murderous punchers.

He was the only guy who ever really backed up Max Baer.

 

Actually he looked like he packed quite a bit of lean mass at least on this fight. For Galento I mean.

 

reznick. If we talk about legacy then yes!! Louis is worlds on tua.but h2h is totally different when we talk about men of different eras. Ike ibeabuchi was 35 pounds heavier than louis being both the same height. And dont tell me the classic stupid excuse of " different nutrition and training etc" ike was much bigger and stronger than louis i dont care about the motive. They were like they were,period, he had bigger frame much more musculature he took a much better shot than louis.Luis got hurt by small guys and knocked out. Tua did hit worlds harder than schmeling... Saying that he has no chance is biased and absurd

 

Lmao janitor like always making a terror film of a bum fat in order to give more credit to the career of louis
