Louis somehow wins...he had it all hit just as hard if not harder could box could move he was Mike Tyson and Holmes mixed into one...well maybe that's a little off but you get the point...Joe wins 2 out of 3

Joe Louis never liked being crowded, and he confessed in retirement that this was his one big flaw. Dempsey would be all over him from the start, and it is possible that he would overwhelm Louis to win by early stoppage.

Still, 2 out of 3 times I would have to favor Joe Louis. He had more skill than Dempsey, and I can envision him countering Dempsey with fast, accurate punches. His power, skill and stamina would be the key, as he would batter a fading Dempsey to win by late tko.
