Wlad Klitschko KO4 Joe Louis - P4P and H2H

please jack just shut the hell up.

 

BewareofDawg and Relentless how many fights of Joe Louis have you seen?

Me: None, so I won't answer to this thread.

 

Dog, are you serious? 4 rounds? Im not saying Louis would win, or lose, but man! And, you didnt pick my song for your ring entrance! By the way, you had your fight yet? howd you get along?

 

Joe Louis was one of my favorite boxers but it's still hard to picture him beating Wladimir, Lewis or any good big HW who knows how to use his size advantage.

For an idea of the huge size difference you can watch Joe Louis vs. Primo Carnera. Joe KO's Primo but Wladimir & Lennox are far better fighters than Carnera ever was.

I'm not saying it couldn't happen but it's just not likely IMO.

 

Edit: I saw Louis vs. Marciano.

 

That was not Joe at his best.

 

If Wlad get's caught with a punch from Smokin Joe - how does he handle it? I don't think he does that good if he gets caught.

 

if Wlad used his jab plenty to tee him up, I can see it happening, it just sounds too easy, but hey, ive seen worse upsets!

 

Thats a good point, Wlad aint exactly granite chin man!

 

well, louis was a powerful fighter in his era. by today's standards he wouldn't be considered as one of the most powerful punchers. and since we know that wlad has only problems with huge punchers, this would be no problem no him. louis has never seen a big guy like wlad with such good technical abilities and precision.

 

head 2 head wlad would win. If louis was louis now born in 1979 hed hammer the **** out of wlad.

h2h lennox would beat any hw, but thats not the way it works when you consider things historicaly

 

Simple...let's compare , prime for prime)
what's Louis' reach advantage?
his size?
weight?

now compare that to a 2007 HW , who can keep his distance all night long , and who also happens to have a super solid jab.

take a guess...
