Joe Louis hit harder than Tyson, Liston, Shavers all those big guys

[AntonTheMeh]

The ridiculously overrated Joe "bum of the month" Louis gets DESTROYED by either Klitschko.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is a ******ed delusional hater.

[Sadistic]

That era also was dominated by Americans. So that's another reason why he won't respect it.

All of the best American heavyweights have been exposed and destroyed by the Klitschkos and other Eastern Europeans. The same thing is happening in many other weight classes too.

Soviets/Eastern Europeans weren't allowed to turn pro until the 1990s because of the cold war/iron curtain.

Now Soviets/Eastern Europeans are allowed to turn pro and we're already taking over boxing and are dominating the higher weight classes. We're also dominating the amatuers. Most of those great amatuers will become great pros. This is just the beginning of the Eastern European domination.

NFL/NBA is just another WEAK EXCUSE.

There are tons of potential Eastern European Heavyweight Boxers who are doing Combat Sambo, MMA, Kickboxing, Hockey, Olympic Wrestling, Olympic Weightlifting, Powerlifting, Worlds Strongest Man Competitions, etc.

America isn't the only country on the planet that has other sports you excuse-making crybaby morons.

Eastern European fighters are superior.

The Klitschkos are the negrocutioners.

Wladimir and Vitali are the two greatest heavyweights of all time.

Either Klitschko beats any HW from any era.

Joe Louis was a great fighter and puncher no doubt, but I don't know if he hit harder than those guys though. There's really no way of knowing for sure though.

[Sheshaw]

There is no factual proof to prove this. This is nonsense.

Joe Louis was a champion in a weak division. He was good but could not compete at the top level against the modern greats imo.

George Foreman III has a 100 percent ko percentage. That mean he hits harder than big old mike?

He said not compete. Not not complete.

Not that it's any less ridiculous or your statement isn't true of course!

Joe Louis was a champion in a weak division. He was good but could not compete at the top level against the modern greats imo.

What did he lack that would mean he couldn't?
