Joe Louis has the best record in HW world title fights... Right? Wrong!

[powerpuncher]

why are you so insistent on this issue? most people have gotten past it. nobody is going to change their mind and you are starting to look more desperate and more ignorant. its only hurting your reputation.

What would happen if keyboard kids actually showed respect for prior eras and found something positive to say rather than obsessing with boarder line homoeroticism and a narrow fixation on the size of everything pertaining to half naked professional athletes

Joe Louis is the Greatest Heavyweight Champion of All-Time end of argument

What reputation?

Are you seriously suggesting that a man whose opponents were referred to as the "Bum of the Month Club" DID NOT fight solid opposition on a regular basis?

Basically the Great Joe Louis fought himself out of top tier challengers, so that is when he began giving 2nd and 3rd tier fighters a shot at the Title.
When Joe and other Champions of that era fought, the world knew and cared who the Champ was, the Heavyweight Championship was front page news. Nowadays, 99% of americans don't even know nor care who the Champ is, and mention the name Klitschko, you'll just get a puzzled expression just before the dumb@$$es ask if "Tyson's still in there?"

Almost every fighter had some defeats at one time.

Folks shouldn't use that term "bums" in regard to professional fighting men.
