I cannot thınk of a sıngle fıghter. He was just too crafty and too explosıve. Yes Schmelıng got hım but that was really early on ın hıs career I thınk.

Vitali / Lennox / Tyson / Holyfield / Holmes i think they would all beat him.

I'll agree wıth the 1986 Tyson who maybe nobody could stop that year. As for Holyfıeld I dont see ıt. Vıtalı no way. I now that Holmes may well beat Louıs I forgot all about Larry when I wrote that post. Yes Holmes would have a 70% chance I thınk now. I dont want to comment on Lewıs because my opınıon of hım ıs not popular.

The most interesting matchup I can think for Joe Louis is Gene Tunney. Gene was a great boxer and given the hell Billy Conn gave to Louis it's an interesting matchup to think about.

Yes Tunney was the wıley fox wasnt he. He may pose the same surprısıng performance as Conn dıd. Good poınt and good choıce there.

For me the fight I would most like to see would be what is probably the most fantasized fight in the history of the sport...

Ali Vs Louis. Ali wins on points for me!

I will say this for certain....Joe Louis demolishes Mike Tyson....yes that would happen.


Evander Holyfield, he'd give ANYBODY a hard fight...granted it may or may not be due to HGH but he was one tough bastard

I completely agree with this post. Evander was a true hard bastard and he had great boxing skill to go with it. I'd just favour Louis but it would have been one hell of a fight.

Louis would have murdered Tyson, I'm shocked that is even in doubt!

As open as Louis is for right hands, which he never really fixed and watching him be outboxed by the likes of Conn and Walcott, I'm thinking Ali would have gotten him.
