who was the most ferocious?

[X]

Louis was scary becuase he was so deadpanned. Just went out there and slaughtered the opposition and then calmly walked back to his corner. Very scary to watc. Almost like he was a killer robot. LaMotta was ferocious.

Joe Louis was told not to smile and gloat over the opponent as it would remind the white folk of Jack Johnson.

i honestly didnt know that about louis.

Yes indeed -he was also told never to have his photo taken with a white woman, as if it appeared in any newspaper it would remind people of Johnson.

Jack's impact was not just on sport and it was still reverberating in 1930's America.
