    There is a saying that people who live in glass houses should not throw stones, and that applies to those arguing the case for Morrison.

    They make their argument based on the frequently overstated problems with Louis's chin, but ignore the far more serious problem's with Morrison's chin.

    After the Bentt fight, you wonder that people would pick Morrison over any puncher of repute!

    In what film did Louis move on tiptoes? People always complain he was a flat-footed shuffler.

    Dempsey and Sharkey tiptoed. What footage are you referring to of Louis tiptoeing?

    Do you have a timestamp from a highlight reel that will show what you mean about Joe standing on his tiptoes like you argue he did in "all" his matches?

    Okay, post footage where he's standing on tiptoes.

    Also, which Jack are you saying didn't stand on tiptoes? Sharkey or Dempsey? Because with Dempsey he does look on film like he's on his toes even when crouching.

    so now your flipping tiptoeing to literally no it means as sneaking forward like tiptoeing

    but Jack moved better in general his body movement was smoother he moved from mutiple angles while punching

    Louis moved forward slow motion tiptoeing while punching from angles

    jack came before louis but moved way better him

    I would say jack would be more dangerous had he been in Louis time cause of the angles and pressure he used

    you dont do good with trying to troll me you know I wont insult you like I do the crazy liars who like to act blind cause you know I got respect for you you know i still will talk to you always like a buddy that I sometimes disagree with

    I wasn't "flipping" it to literal. I had no way of knowing you weren't speaking literally.

    That's nice of you, but I wasn't trolling you.

    I assumed you meant literally tiptoeing because Sharkey and Dempsey did both literally stand on their toes.

    Most of the time, when people describe Louis's footwork, they describe it as "shuffling" rather than non-literal "tiptoeing."

    IMO he would be the hardest hitter Louis has faced, but far more importantly, he will be the most skilled.
