    a prime lightheavy lamotta vs the great joe louis. could the iron chinned lamotta soak up everything joe has and take him into deep waters and finish him off or does joe destroy the bull and does he take him off his feet?

    This falls down because Lamotta was not really prime at 175lbs.

    You've done this hypothetical match up before...Louis still stops LaMotta very early.

    LaMotta could perhps take the shots of Robinson but Louis was something different powerwise. He would be stopped. At lhw he was past his prime and too easy to hit. This won´t go beyond 8.

    Sorry,but I do n't even see this making round 3. As iron chinned as Lamotta was,at his own weight,he'd just get shelled from the first bell,and not manage to get out of the way of Louis' punches.

    If Lamotta went the distance in this fight ,they would lock up Louis , and the referee.
