    With 12 ounce gloves and facing opponents under 200 pounds, No I do not think Joshua did not hit harder than Louis did with 6-8 ounce gloves. No, I think Louis threw better combinations. Am I clear?

    Having said that, who did Joe Louis really beat? Names, weights and condition of his opponents please.

    Joshua rates as a top 5 modern day super heavyweight who can fight. Just because Usyk can out box him and Ruiz hit hard enough to knock him out ... okay so what! Louis was KO'd 2 times by sub 200 pound men and out scored by others on the score cards ( which in some cases were biased toward Louis ). That is worse if we compare and contrast

    IMO Joshua knocks Galento out without being floored. His range alone makes the fight as mismatch. Get real. Galento lost 26 times, and was KO's 6 times in what ring magazine calls the worst era of heavyweight boxing.
    Joshua is too muscle bound to throw a proper high velocity punch. Hell always be a push puncher. He’s not turning anyones lights out.

      Joshua is a puncher. Have you not seen his fights? And a skilled modern heavyweight boxer who won Olympic Gold, has a good pro record, and was one of the world champions, defending his title numerous times. He should easily be viewed better than Galento. It is shame Fury won't fight him.

        What grade you be in this September?
        Oh boy, another "across the ponder" without any clue. No, Galento had never been dropped in sparring, the amateurs or in his professional career prior to his 105th pro fight with none other than Joe Louis. More mythical B.S. from uniformed posters. Galento was around 20 years or older when he sparred with Dempsey but the KO of Galento is pure fiction. Wake me up when you have something relevant to say.

          - - When was you lights turned out permanently to your current stupefied state?

          AJ is literally one of the best athletes in boxing history if we went to Decathalon competition with an impressive KO %. Don't have to like him, but you don't have to soil yourself on a boxing board over what you know not.
