    When did Norton, Cooney or Witherspoon drop Holmes?

    They likely split. It would be an incredibly hard trilogy for both fighters

    Why do you assume that? Even during his prime years Holmes was regularly tagged, hurt and even decked by contenders who weren’t on Louis’ level.

    I’m not talking about the people who “ beat him.” I’m talking about the people who gave him hell in his prime like Ken Norton, Mike Weaver, Earnie Shavers, Renaldo snipes, Gerry Cooney and Tim Witherspoon. But you’re just going to say that those guys were better than Louis so I guess there’s no point in continuing further

    Footage has been provided to you but you choose to interpret it differently than most others do. You even posted a clip of Morrison getting hammered in one round by Michael Bentt and argued steadfastly that Morrison’s movement was better than Louis’s even though it was painfully obvious that he had NO movement in that fight. You’re entitled to your opinion but arguing about this with you is an obvious waste of time.

    no thats a lie no vid was shown to me joe using advances they did in 70s-90s I want the exact advances they did I want a vid of that from him

    I dont care if the vid showed tom winning the point is and will always be his movement I compared so it doesnt matter who wins or not and he did have way better movement in his whole career

    Please don’t call me a liar. I may get things wrong from time to time but I have no reason to lie to anybody especially on a recreational forum. It was my belief that other posters showed footage of Louis on these threads and you just sat back and shot it down. If that’s wrong then I guess I was wrong but I’m not a dishonest person.

    There is numerous footage of Joe Louis on YouTube and you’ve likely seen it yourself. Why should I have to do a cut and paste project when I already know your answer will be the same. Especially when you already believe that Morrison looked better against BENTT than Louis did in any of his other fights ? Again, it’s a complete and utter waste of time…
