    Should the point even be brought up about the caliber of fighters who made it the distance with Jones? None of them even close to the level of Joe Louis.

            your a bigger cop out than I imagined,you do nothing to counter anyones points without exposing yourself to a complete fool who knows nothing about boxing,Then again you probably think sonny liston had a glass jaw too huh?
            You're an alt mate!.... You didn't even have to hit Liston to knock him over lol... I don't take alts seriously.. I'll just have fun abusing you, you ****...

                  there's no real argument joe louis had a very weak chin,even his staunchest supporters have admitted as much




                  you can either take a punch or you can't,neither men could
                  And yet Louis somehow managed to keep standing for all those rounds against Max despite getting nailed with the right-hand over and over. And, even Dundee was amazed at watching the Baer fight with the shots Louis took.

                  If he couldn't take a shot he would have lost more than two times...with only 1 coming before he was shot.

                  His chin just wasn't granite.

                    Jones chin was never tested till he was past his prime but was not only stopped by two guys who'll never be in the Hall of fame, but put to sleep by one punch ko's.

                    Louis on the other hand was stopped twice. Once past his prime, the other before it. Both times against HOF fighters, and the first time he took
                    bomb after bomb before finally succumbing. Little bit of a difference there. If you can't understand that its time to re-take boxing 101.
                    Don't make excuses now lad. Joe Louis was brutally KO'd, dominated and made to quit IN HIS PRIME. He was coming off a KO streak against some of his best opponents and was unbeaten.

                    Don't make excuses now lad. If you're right then Tyson was past his prime vs Douglass, Foreman vs Young etc. Nuthugging arse.

                      His chin was much worse than glass. The reason he wasn't finished was because those bums, who had no business to knockdown the "Greatest HW ever"(pukes, farts, laughs) were too ****ty to finish him.
