I'm no boxing expert, but I believe there is a SLIGHT difference between John Ruiz & JOE LOUIS! The Louis who just got knocked out by Marciano could have gotten up & STILL taken care of Jones.
Ignore Rico, he is a RJJ hater, however RJJ is too small to beat Louis, I think he would have his moments but Louis would eventually overpower him and brutally KO him at some point, both are ATGs but Louis is bigger and better, IMHO.
Joe Louis would wipe the floor with Roy Jones, I cant believe this is even in discussion. Are we basing this on the Ruiz win ? Because Hopkins, Calzaghe would have done exactly the same to Ruiz and Toney did do it ! Antonio Tarver and Glen Johnson are no Joe Louis ! atschatschatschatsch
As I mentioned earlier in the thread I rank Roy Jones as the greatest boxer since Duran, the best of the last 25 years and one of the greatest ever. But he's not a heavywt. It was a great achievement to defeat even a pedestrian champion like Ruiz, on account of th enatural size difference. But at their primes, Tyson, Lewis, Foreman, Louis, Ali and Holmes, to name a few, would destroy Roy.
