Arreola Vs. Louis

[TheGreatA]

maybe a more skilled bum , i can believe that , but also a chinnier one and somewhat a weaker puncher too.

Baer had a cast-iron chin and a bigger punch than Arreola, who doesn't get anyone out of there with a single punch. Having a good chin doesn't necessarily mean you'll last against Louis because he is fast and accurate with his punches. When he connects cleanly, it usually means lights out.

Because Frankenfrank requested it.

I have Louis winning by Decapitation.

and don't get me wrong , i knew louis will win the poll (as opposed to an actual fight , if such fight could be made) , but i wanted to match louis against someone whom may well probably be a lesser technical fighter , but a superior one after considering physical prowess , and it's not that i am totally sure arreola's power is many levels above louis' , nor his reach or height are significantly larger if at all , but he does have the much better chin of the two. technique can help you of course , but if your opponent walks you down and hits you back , and you don't have the footwork to escape , nor do you have the chin to take his punches , nor you are a dirty bastard like hopkins , and his punching power is at least as big as yours , the only way is down and out.

lets review some of louis' biggest victories :
Billy Conn : a former supermiddleweight (lightheavyweight as there was no 168 division back then)
louis was hurt but won by KO.
aren't we proud of joe ?

Jersey Joe Walcott : a former lightheavyweight
louis was down in this rematch as well as in the first match he virtually
lost by decision. ain't it fantastic to barely pull a win over smaller opponents after being totally outclassed and being exposed as the plodder you are ?

Tony Galento : Louis at 6'2" managed to get hit by the 5'9" out of shape
short armed ball of lard whom was also 4 years older than himself and
quite past it even compared to his (Galento's) prime state. he goes
down . however , he gets up and wins by way of KO.
so surprising , isn't it ?

Jim Braddock : 9 years older than louis , the cinderella man (not for nothing) still manages to drop our dear hero , again , but loses by KO.
(and McCall is a journeyman , so what is he ?)
oh , that prodigy of a fighter.


i am sure that there are some more such examples that i didn't bother to look for as i also take for granted you know about louis' losses as well.

just replace galento with tua , Braddock with McCall , Carnerra with vitali Klitschko , Conn with Adamek , and see where it goes.
and not a word about Haye , Sam Peter , Chris Arreola and some more of them. nor did i even mention Wladimir Klitschko , whom is chinny but also hits hard and far.

is this thread a joke? Louis By Brutal KO

[McGrain]

Billy Conn : a former middleweight (some may also add : washed up).

Jesus Christ Frank, surely you don't believe these things you write? Surely you're not serious?

i am serious and taken your remark into account , the last time he made 160 was at 21 , so , consider it supermiddleweight.
and this is not negotiable.
the last time he made 167 (yes , i know smw limit is 168) was at age 22 , but he had no reason of trying to maintain that weight as there was no smw division.
and also that time's methods of making weight were vastly inferior to today's.

I know his fighting at 160 is "not negotiable", i'm talking about your "washed up" remark. How on earth are you going to justify that?

[Southpaw Stinger]

Louis would kill this ****.

Unfortunately he is. Most of his posts on Boxing Scene are of a similar vein.

arreolas 1 of the few champs of today i think louis would have a chance against but i still think arreola overwhelms him.i dont think joe had the footwork to get away from arreolas bombs all night

Champs?.... He may win the worlds eating championship..

Arreola came in at an unsightly 250lbs against Adamek who is a blown up lightheavy, and still managed to lose, quite convincingly too.. This would be similar to the Galento fight for Louis but without the KD, because Arreola doesn't **** as hard as Galento did with one shot.. Galento vs Arreola fits the bill, that'd be a close and competative fight, ala McDonalds vs Burger King..

[Holtol]

Arreola has two things on Louis. About 40 pounds of solid fat, And he is not afraid to cry in the ring.
