    You may have access to better film than me, or you might have a better eye than me, but before MY first encounter with slowed footage of Louis (the first time I viewed his fights on DVD) i wasn't familiar with some of the more subtle stuff.

    Hopefully, there will be some other people who have a similair experience on the site.

    :lol:

    And what DID Wlad say when he saw that small, chubby, FAT, semi-retired ex-golfer in Corrie Sanders?

    One word: TIMBER!

    NOW try to imagine what Wlad would REALLY say if he saw Louis... Capice?

    :lol: I hope you caught my sarcasm? I said that because most wlad fans only argument for him beating atg's is "he's 6'6!"

    Yes im a wlad fan, but, theres a lot of boxers that I think could take him.

    Joe Louis was perhaps the greatest heavyweight ever and my personal favorite boxer.

    Joes Louis was a skilled boxer, but he was not a big heavyweight, not by today's standards.
