I dunno Ice ....... Roland LaStarza could box and Joe Louis (even an old Joe Louis) would hit a lot harded that Bob Foster ever could.
Yea but this is same Joe Louis who was totally outpointed by Ezzard Charles, and was knocked down 3 times in 2 fights vs Jersey Joe Walcott. With the 1st fight being a total robbery, and the 2nd fight was a come from behind KO with Joe Louis losing by a big margin.

Im not taking anything from Rocky Marciano, its not his fault his era was weak. But he wasn't no unbeatable force either, like this guy is making out.
