  • Are Jersey Joe Walcott and Max Baer all time greats?

    According to someone(I won't say his name to protect the little credibility that he has) Walcott and Max Baer are not great.

    Lets see here. Walcott didn't get his opportunity to challenge to a title until he was older. Him and Joe Louis are the exact same age and Louis first had his title shot(against Tommy Far) at the age of 23 years old. Walcott was 33 at the time he first had his title shot and back then, set the record for becoming the oldest heavyweight champion at 37. He also had impressive names on his record such as Harold Johnson- An underrated legend that has wins over Archie Moore, prime Ezzard Charles, Auturo Goody, Bob scatterfield and a few others. He was a very skilled technition in the ring and doesn't get the proper respect in which he deserves. Walcott also has wins over Ezzard Charles, Joey Maxim and a lot of good contedners.

    Max Baer- Was a very tough and powerful heavyweight and once champion. His right hand was deadly and anniliated Primo Carnera. Baer has wins over Far, Galento, Smelling and a lot of others good fighters.

        Walcott wins the title from Charles. One of the best and most underrated knockouts ever. Charles' head nearly snaps backwards, very scary.

        Yes, they are certainly all time great material.

            Walcott definitely is. Baer is debatable but I'll say yes.

              To the poster that I am referring to in this thread, obviously i meant to say that Walcott fought 10 times a year, not month. Its ok though, you have a history at putting words in other's mouths. If i didn't mistakingly say it, then you would have edited the post anyway. Very mature of you to go off and put something in your signature, especially when you don't have the real meaning.

                  yes, very scary knockout, bone chilling. hasim rahman is also an all time great because he scored a chilling ko over Lennox Lewis, right?

                  **** everyone is an all time great
