That was brilliant to watch Joe Louis is vicious like a young Mike Tyson!
Abe Simon was 6ft 4 and weighed 60 lb more than Joe and was still battered so Loius would have been able to live with today's fighters. Abe was not a great fighter but he did stop Jersey Joe Walcott so he can't have been a bum. That was the 2nd time Joe had fought him however.
He gave up his entire $1 million purse to the army and yet was treated so badly by the government.
