I hope everyone that saw that film now knows why I think so highly of Joe Louis and how great of a champion he was. He had 4 years of his prime taken away (by VOLUNTEERING!!!) and was then persecuted by the IRS for the remaineder of his career, and he still managed to win 25 title defenses and THE FIGHT OF THE CENTURY vs Max Schmelling.


JOE LOUIS IS THE GREATEST HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION IN THE HISTORY OF THE SPORT!
