But if you want to talk alphabet crap, then Graciano Rocchigiani has to be the best, just for bankrupting the WBC (Wily Bribable Council)
Louis was an overrated bum. Knocked on his ass by Two Ton Galento, a man who if he had existed in the present era would have been fighting 4 rounders with Butterbean.

He only just beat Billy Conn who he outweighed by about 30 lbs.

He should have lost to Jersey Joe Walcott, the 40' and 50's version of Frank Bruno.

He was famously flat footed, his wooden performances in the ring matched only by his dark mahogany varnished wooden acting career.

They called him the Brown Bomber, truth is he just bombed.
