Oh jeez I'd have to go with Bowe.

Joe wasn't a great "boxer" (in the slickster sense), he was a great boxer/puncher. I just don't think Joe would have had the ability to keep Bowe at bay. He'd be going up against a guy with a longer reach, 30-40 functional pounds on him, superior fire power and a superior chin.

I just can't see Louis winning that fight. Different times, different weight catagories.

If it was just some palooka with 30lbs on him, sure. But Bowe was world class.
