    What we don't like is a thread about Joe Louis being dominated by your negative posts about George Foreman.You are obsessed with him! Christ Man. LET IT GO!

    That would take professional help i'd reckon at this point. It's no small amount of trauma being caused by Foreman.

    Trauma no doubt caused by some childhood scarring. Or maybe he lost a bet and hasnt let it go!

    This is a joe Louis thread about how shot he was or not on his comeback. There is nothing obsessive in suggesting Joe Louis was just as capable as Foreman was in his comeback. I believe joes comeback would have been enhanced if it benefited from the same astonishing circumstances and match making that George had.

    Both guys were past their best and no longer good enough to beat anybody genuinely regarded as the best in the world. Title or not.
