Louis carried the extra weight well. For a 37 year old guy he has a tight belly and a V back. Looks good. Fury should feel shamed.

Not sure I would call these the 'lost fights' as much as the 'forgotten fights.' -- but Louis looked his best against Lee Savold.

Thanks for posting.

P.S. If the British Boxing Board of Control considered this for the HW Championship of the World (note the 15 round length) should we not begin to include Lee Savold on the same list with the other single belt holders from the WBA/WBC/IBF/WBO Etc. ?

- - Bit of a landmine question you pose, but Savold was in the same mold as the colored champs, often disputed colored champ titles.

The BBB of c recognized Savold/Louis as for the world title, easily on par with NY commissish who ranked Dempsey, Tunney, ect.
