Louis would have cut and busted up Rocky with precision jabs and stopped him late in the fight with short right hands and left hooks. Joe would have respected Rocky far more than he did two Ton Tony.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I watched the Joe Louis Story from 1953 (Coley Wallace played Joe Louis... Coley of course beat Marciano in the amateurs eh eh).
Louis never took the fight seriously.... he even ate BIRTHDAY CAKE a few weeks before the fight!![]()
Max got the last laugh though, he invested well and lived a great life after boxing... not Joe Louis!
Not trying to be funny, I think it's very sad what happened to Joe... but Joe has nobody to blame but himself for the way he ended up.
It has to be acknowledged that Schemling did what very few boxers do... successfully make the transition from boxing career to retirement. Max was a great man who will be very fondly remembered... he was a hero and definitely deserved that recognition! Great man.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Joe would bust up Rocky if he could find the crouching monster. He could not find the croucher. Rocky up out of a crouch with a left from hell to bust Louis' spleen. Round 14. Obscene.
Yep, Joe's jab was really horrid. I wonder how Floyd Mayweather survived all those years......
