Joe louis is beyond overated???

I can live with someone thinking those HWs would beat Joe Louis. That's plausible...


But did you just say David Haye would flatten him? You deserve to be kicked in the ****ing head

 

Great post!:good
Poster like you do more damage to Louis fans than any Louis hater could.

 

29 voters don't know shat about boxing:deal

 

It was a good post. Now shut up and learn:good

 

Flat footed, kinda slow, smallish with a good punch. He was propped up as a wartime hero during the Greatest Generation years with the bum of the month club for propaganda reasons, stopped by Max Schmeling.

Massively overrated.

 

I end threads.

/end.

 

There has'nt been a Hevyweight that threw combinations with the technic and power as good Joe Louis ever, please name the fighters today who have " improved upon " as you put it ?

comparing a human with a car is one of the most stupid examples I've ever heard.

You forgot to mention the 10 times he kissed the canvas, most of them to white heavyweights who were pretty ordinary on the whole and nowhere near as good or skilful as the Klits. Also how a guy like Tami Mauriello could manage to hurt him so early, another average white boy. Of course Mauriello was dropped and finished soon after, but imagine that had been a prime Mike Tyson rocking Louis in the first seconds? Joe Louis was a great heavy, deserves to be ranked in the top 2 in history with Ali, but he was not perfection as is made out.

Joe Lewis was a legend back in his day...


Today lebedvev would take him apart.


All sports evolve. Boxing does too.

 

How about comparing Jesse Owens with Tyson Gay or George Mikan with Shaq?

 

These two real all time greats would of had the the two bitches (Floyd/Manny) running for their mummys if they were on the scene today.

Wlad got KOed by a part time golfer

 

Name some boxers today who you think are more skilled than Marvin Hagler?

 

Bad example. Boxing is a martial art which means that there is a lot of room for individual expression. Running is basically about getting down the perfect technique. Your basically trying to compare a science with an artfrom.

 

I would bet everything I own that someone like a Lamon Brewster would brutally beat the **** out of Joe Louis....different times... different kind of athletes.
