Joe louis is beyond overated???

25 title defenses.

 

Yes. Don't be a guy but come on her guy. Mhmm. Wise words.

 

Yea, really old fighters do seem to be overrated in H2H matchups.

P.S. He would still beat Wlad though

 

Smh...

11 years as champion, 25 title defense's and boxing was a different

era then so whileif u transplant Joe in this Modern era were HW are

250 plus and over 6'5 in mosst casesyou are asking alot for a man

who weighted 190 and was 6'2. And while the older boxers are

legendary and i think most are overrated if they fought today with

the rules that boxing has in place, its kinda hard to say a man like

Joe is overrated because of wht he did in the ring and his impact on

american society outside of the ring

 

Unlike so many of the perceived heavyweight greats from the first half of the 20th century,Louis actually looks like a great fighter,which doesn't really provide a credible argument to the theory that somebody like him wouldn't be able to flourish beyond his own era.

 

Boxing definitely wasn't the same back then....it was light years better.

 

What hurt me with Louis was him rolling over on his stomach and letting the referee count him out vs Max Schmeling without even taking a good punch..Joe Louis was a quiter when things got tough....

 

How old are you?

 

Max Schmeiling and Billy Conn are very good wins.
