    It would be hard to dispute Louis being more skilled than nearly any heavyweight, but it is important to understand that they have very different skills.

    Styles make fights, and each man is a brilliant example of his style.

    Agreed I just feel the fight is Louis’s to lose and if he boxes smart he should win more times than not

    Louis, in a very dangerous fight. Dempsey may well win it, but if made to bet I’d bank on the Bomber’s jab doing just enough to put a lunging, roaring Dempsey in line for lethal combinations. TKO6 sounds plausible.

    The first round between these two would be an instant classic.

    Dempsey is a dangerous fight for all Heavyweights outside of the super heavyweights where the size difference would be too much

    Saying that if Jack lands clean on Lennox Lewis he's got the speed and explosiveness to take him out, very unlikely but a possibility
