Schmelling Threw the Second Louis Fight

If by throwing the fight you mean taking pulverising shots and being knocked senseless then yes he threw the fight.......

 

30 years of fandom culminates in THIS?

Oh come on.

 

He did throw the fight.

In fact he broke his own vertebrae in the dressing room before the fight to reduce his chances of winning.

 

But come on ..He threw the fight in such a way it really look's as if he's getting his body smashed to a pulp. Bloody good actor ..

 

Were you on acid or coke when you had this realization ??

 

Yeah if he threw the fight, he choose the wrong profession.

 

Let's hear your theory on this. Max carried broken back vertebrae for the rest of his life. He mentioned numerous times how much permanent pain it cost him. So please cough up your theory. It also got him drafted into the German Paras at age 35 with a bunch of 20 yr olds

 

It was obviously a plot by Hitler to lessen WWII ferver of Americans and delay their entry into the war.

 

Support for this thesis?

 

Lol ,very true .He coulda been a great ..like Richard Burton !

 

May I ask what made you come to this conclusion? Why do you think he did it?

 

Right before that last right hand vibrated his head like a tuning fork, I could tell that he was looking for a way to let Louis score the KO

 

I could just see him now, telling his manager in the dressing room before the fight, "Mein Gott! Who would want to win the heavyweight championship of the world and the money and fame it brings? I sees somezing! It is a ruse to make me wealthy! I am not some dumbkoff, I will look for a soft spot on the canvas."

 

I haven't even been alive for 30 years
