I'm sick of the bashing of Max Baer

Buster Douglas was the Cinderfella Man.

Too bad the glass slipper no longer fit his fat swollen feet when he faced Evander.

He swapped himself out for the carriage that turned back into a pumpkin.

 

Baer's chin is crazy strong. Ol Joe would have been chipping away all night until he collapsed from exhaustion.

 

Ring en Espanol used to say that Max was so confident on a knockout punch that by he was clowning like, well..a clown..and making the crowd laugh and being a comedian, and then by the time he realized was time to go for broke it was the tenth or eleventh and he never landed the punch that won him the fight, therefore Braddock won.-Their narrative, not mine, Ive never sen the fight.

 

Hollywood are the ones that have the bad habit of slandering anyone and everyone so biopics can have villians. The director wasn't giving his opinion on Max Baer as a person or historical figure. He didn't have some historical agenda or narrative he was trying to push. He was using Max as a plot device.

 

Max Baer would have made Foreman look ordinary. Foreman never got pounded to the body like Baer would pound him.

 

Anyone’s guess really. Too bad we’ll never know.

 

Louis avoided Baer for years. He drew the colour line.
