    Idk about the russian or ee trainers teaching American boxing, but there's a reason why the Klitschko's seeked out Manny Steward, Kovalev seeked out John David Jackson, Provodnikov seeked out Roach, Gradovich seeked out Garcia, and Golovkin seeked out Sanchez. If anything, the elite ee's are Americanizing their style more than ever. Nothing wrong with that.

    Usyk seeked out James Bashir and he would have at the majority of comments made on here when it comes to old school HWs.

    These guys are fighting ee style. None of those guys is fighting in an us style. The fighter who still does this the most is kova.
    They seek for us trainor to make their style more fitting for pro boxing. Since most russian trainers are aiming for olympic boxing. But at its base their fight completely like ee.

    100% bull****

    Boxing fighter throw more punches in less rounds. Also the punches and movement is alot more solid the whole fight long. I dont want to think about ali fights were he would stand without any guard and clinching for the last quarter of the fight

    I think with the hw power is the most important factor. Even though louis was known as one of the most powerful punchers of his time, there is no objective measurements of his power. If there is a measurement and it turns out to be comparable to today's top hw punchers, I think with his skills aND technique he could beat any of the top hw of today.

    Nope. I just don't see what bearing it has on a Louis matchup.

    Joe Louis definitely beats the sh*t out of Dimitrenko, KOs him cold early.

    He uses Mariusz Wach like his punching bag.

    Don't know about elite SHWs though

    Wlad isn't the one that failed dummy. It was Haye who started ALL the **** talk and promised THE WORLD the fight wouldn't last 3 rounds and it would be "My easiest fight to date!!" Lol! Then he goes out there and gets dominated.

    Another day of Klitschko keyboard bashing huh you sick ****?! Lol!! :risas3:

    Most modern heavies would have had their way with him and embarrassed him.

    He'd get bullied and beaten to a pulp.

    Dino has been right before.

    I marked it down on a calendar, because the first time it came hailing down with massive hailstones that dented factory roofs for miles around, and the second time he was right there was a drought and all my tomatoes died. :cursing: Somebody upstairs doesn't like it when Dino is right. Legends speak of a THIRD, most dangerous time in the future when Dino will be right again. However, it should be many years before this comes to pass. :biggrin:

    Would Louis be just as roided as today's "superheavyweights"? Then he'd rule the division now just like he did then.
