Joe Louis vs. Vitali Klitschko

a word to the wise or in KTFO's case, the not so wise, steer clear of politics or any and all fields that involves debating. they wont take to kindly to your school yard tactics that your using on ESB.

 

Watch Louis use his speed to slip in and pummell the 6'6 , 265 pound Carnera who fights very similiar to the K Brothers ...

Carnera was an unskilled tool of 'the mob', just like Joe Louis. If Louis was techniqually that accomplished then tell me why he was floored several times in his entire career. Was it a lucky punch? Were the opponents that good?
The Klitschko bros got by far more boxing skills than Primo Carnera. If you want to compare Carnera to Valuev then do so, but surely not the Klitschko bros.

 

So you can't be a technician if you get floored every once in a while? How do you explain the fact that Wladimir Klitschko has taken the count more times than Joe Louis in less fights? Is he not a technician?

 

This has to make the golden century of posts!

 

That is the only way you will ever see Vitaly win.

 

List please. Then I'll check it. Then my answer.

 

I saw him winning several times already. I don't know what other occupations he got in his life, but those were the footages, yes.

 

Louis knocked down against

Schmeling I x2
Braddock x1
Galento x1
B. Baer x1
Walcott I x2
Walcott II x1
Marciano x2

Total: 10 times in 69 fights

Wladimir knocked down against

Pannell x1
Puritty x1
Sanders x4
Brewster x1 (standing 8 count, fell down after the bell sounded)
Williamson x1
Peter x3

Total: 11 times in 56 fights

 

And 8 of the 10 knockdowns scored against Louis were acheived by men who held the title at some point,and at least 2 of them when he was clearly past it.
Wlad has been knocked down by journeymen, and,whilst in his prime.

 

...Been gone a week and nothing's changed. Whew.

 

And all but two of those men were HOFers.

 

And in all but two fights, against Marciano and Schmeling obviously, Louis got up from the knockdowns as if it was nothing and went on about his business.

 

Vitali makes guys miss in every fight that goes a few rounds. In fact you could make a defensive highlight video on Klitschko. Vitali might be the best defensive puncher of all time.

I think its more impressive to see Lennox Lewis, Byrd or Sanders draw air, than to slip in on a somewhat ponderous Carnera and beat him to the punch. Of Course Vitali uses his legs, is much smarter, almost never nailed by a combination, has an active jab, a better defense etc.... So the video here only shows what Louis could do to someone who lacks what Vitali had.
