    So most are going for a Louis KO, even though Vitali was never stopped, never even knocked down throughout the whole course of his career. Also to say that Vitali has glaring physical advantages; 5 inches in height, roughly 50 pounds in weight, 3 inches in reach.

    Don't buy it.

    TKO if Vitali gets injured maybe. For sure Louis can win on the cards. But a KO? Not a chance IMO.

    Awwww cuts deep doesn't it.

    I don't debate you because you are a shockingly biased bottom feeding poster who can't admit himself wrong even when slapped in the face with cold hard facts.

    Mcvey has been making a foolish liar out of you longer than i care to remember. The more you post the more he batters you.

    Sit back and cry again over the TKO6 :pipi

    Joe Louis didn't struggle with them though.

    Do you have an actual argument based on Vitali's accomplishments? Your entire premise is based upon your opinion of how Vitali would do against Louis's competition. Who did Vitali beat that makes you think he would beat Louis?

    In this case it's just stoppage or KO bracketed under KO. Might put stoppage next time.

    Im of the unpopular opinion joe might lose the first fight, then win the rematch. Louis was frightening in rematches and knew how to make adjustments.

    Are you sure that Vitali was never stopped in the course of his whole career?

    It tells me that a 2000 prime Louis would ICE a 1940 prime Vitali.
    I guess I should just stop telling folks about absurdly comparing eras.
