Thread: 1973 George Foreman vs 1942 Joe Louis

Does the Brown Bomber get bombed? Or can he keep George off him like Ali did? Who wins this matchup? Both in their prime.

The Bronze Bomber all day long. He’s too skilful for big George.

Do you think his Sharp perfectly leveraged combination punches would hurt big george?

Joe Louis is the greater heavyweight but think he gets blasted like Joe Frazier did.

Louis was a notorious slow starter and did not move enough to deter Big George. Foreman would have the size advantage and would catch Louis to knock him out.

If Joe did survive the early onslaught he would have a chance as George tires but think he would have taken too much punishment to put up an effective attack by the later rounds.

Brown Bomber is Louis.

Foreman wins inside 1 round.

after the multiple................ Punctuation marks there........ The truth came out voluntarily 😂

Primo ha fatto bene🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊

But primo has done a wonderful thing actually by bringing up the atomic windmill deontay Wilder.

Imagine the bronze bomber versus the brown bomber.

@Master I agree that Joe Louis is the better fighter but that he gets bombed out by big George Foreman because besides being a slow starter, he would not be able to push Foreman back or even stand toe to toe. Joe Frazier for all his pressure style could not get anywhere with George Foreman. The brown bomber did not even really move forward very aggressively. He would be right in George Foreman's wheelhouse for those big uppercuts and hooks. I agree with dark lord Al that the fight would barely last one round maybe two

Brown bomber would make the bronze bomber look silly.

Remember Foreman used to like to shove fighters backwards

​My video shows exactly how Joe and his era fought. In that video, does that version of Joe look like he or anybody else would land anything on foreman or people he fought?

Look up foreman louis advanced on youtube

he and guys from his time look like novices compared side by side to no names Foreman fought, and in no way does anyone from that era look like they would last 1 round vs. guys in the 70s-'90s so why did clearly not sane people say louis wins?

Fuck me, this guy really don’t like Joe Louis!
Reminds me of the guy on here a few years back that absolutely hated Muhammad Ali , and I used to wind him up say that Ali shagged his Mum and nicked his sandwiches!
Fuck me, what was his name again??

Edit. @Bill Paxtom . Fuck me , whatever happened to old Billy boy!

The size difference would be to big.

In his prime Foreman weighed usually 230 pounds (16.4 stone) where as Joe Louis used weighed about 200 pounds (14.2 stone)

How does a cruiserweight beat Foreman ? Too small, too light, not fast enough. But even with a weight disadvantage, I would not be surprised if Louis was able to pick his shots and take apart the wide-swinging Foreman with pin-point accurate counter punches.

But let's say they had to weigh roughly the same ?

Joe Louis ALL DAY.

Fighters in Joe Louis era's had to deal with much harder living conditions. It was rare that fighters became rich and pampered so early in their careers. Their hunger to win was real. Back in the day fighters used to fight on the streets, the docks, anywhere there was events that held those fights.

PROPER HARD BASTARDS

They had no drugs to save them from death whatsoever. They didn`t even have penicillin untill 1943. People of the times if they survived infancy they were strong babies.and to make it to their teen-age years they had to be very strong of body and durability. The amount of illnesses that could kill one at the time was real, people died from the common measles, chicken-pox, scarlet fever, flues of all types.

You name it and it was there to kill you.
