Mike Tyson would of gone down as the greatest of all time if he was focused and dedicated himself to the craft of boxing rather that throwing it away with hookers, drugs and beating up women.
Excuse my spelling Hidden Content
Briggs Stamina and a big mouth.
Jerry Quarry Could not resist a
slugfest.
Joe Louis was great but he couldve been bigger if he didn't have a personality of a tree.
He was more wooden than Keanu Reeves and Kneeguel Cotto combined, like no chaisma whatsoever.
I think you are missing the point
All due respect to Joe Louis, but if he had asserted himself just a little, he wouldn't have been in the financial ruin he was in most of his life after boxing.
Ray Robinson fought relatively during the same era and turned out just fine financially.
Considering this is boxing that could be any fighter plagued with a bad chin!

Joe Louis had financial troubles because he was taxed on purses he had for exhibition bouts when he was in the army. Also later in life he had a cocaine problem and gambling problem as he was hired to open casinos and glad hand the high rollers.
His personality was put on mute because he never would have had a title shot if he acted like Jack Johnson. That's the 100% God's honest truth. That's how many feathers Johnson ruffled.
James Toney - discipline. Not that Toney didn't achieve greatness, but he could have been much more if he just kept his goddamn weight in check.
