    Louis is proven against big heavyweights.
    B Baer x 2
    A Simon x2

    The same Tyson Fury that went the distance with an old Zack Page and knocked down by Cunningham would get knocked out by Louis.

    Tyson Fury's size would create problems for most heavyweight legends but he's not beating Joe Louis.

    Fury was not prime versus page and was clowning around versus Cunningham, only went down due to being off balance and wasn't hurt at all

    At the moment Fury is a fighter with one good win, and I will freely admit that it is a win that I did not expect.

    I don’t expect him to hold the lineal title for long, because he is not consistent.

    Either way, fighters with one good win are always a bit of an unknown quantity.

    Going on the video evidence the Fury of the klitschko fight beats any version of Louis

    Louis would have beaten both of them in the same night.
