Arreola Vs. Louis

[Snopkins]

I'm not following your logic frankenfrank. You say Louis was too small yet to my memory Arreola just got beat by a blown up LHW in Adamek. Surely if Adamek can bust up Arreola without taking much punishment Joe Louis could.

Arreola is tailor made for Louis.

He was just beaten by a blown up LHW who refused to provide the emerging Arreola with a stationary target.Arreola definately shook Adamek up a few times and had it not been for Adamek using as much movement as he did then Arreola most likely would have knocked him out.


Can you imagine Joe Louis running around the ring the way Vitali and Adamek did?

Because Frankenfrank requested it.

I have Louis winning by Decapitation.

easy win for Louis. Agree w/ the great A.

might look like Louis vs Abe Simon 2. Maybe a tiny bit better.

Aereolla is a natural 215 lder. He was a 175 lb fighter in the ams.

He's got a 77 reach and no muscle definition whatsoever. he dropped 25 lbs and was still fat as hell.

The only real big men are the klits and Lewis..and well....Valuev.

The Klits and Lewis both in their primes were over 230 and not fat.

louis to win by ko in the 6th.

louis seemed very good at manipulating peoples arms when they punched so that he was always at the best distance. i see a fight with giant areola's as just a series of louis hanging back in the begining waiting for areola when areola attacks louis would throw the punch away get on the inside fire away a few body shots then when areolas attempts to clinch Louis would roll out of it using his ability to manipulate arms still in perfect range and fire off some head shots while the giant areola's still tring to clinch, louis gets knocked down once during these exchanges maybe in the second. by the fourth round louis has stopped waiting for areola and has started coming at him louis takes him down once in the middle of the fifth then again with about 1:15 left in the sixth with less then 30 seconds left in the sixth louis sends him down again this time for the count.

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?

i thought so because he retired shortly after his second louis fight , but maybe it was because of both of his louis fights which quite ended his career.
so i guess he wasn't at least before the first fight.

[frankenfrank]

He literally killed two men with a punch. What does that tell you about his power?

that his gloves were thinner than today and you just don't know the accumulated damage these guys took throughout their career before by taking punches from other fighters waring those light gloves and i guess it also tells me something about those fighters whom weren't good fighters.
it does tell me he was a hard puncher for his time , but there were more ring casualties back then as you likely know.

and i also said (some may say : washed up) meaning : no me.

but i edited my post and deleted it.

Not sure what ounce gloves they used then but bigger gloves deliver an even greater impact than smaller gloves.Smaller gloves just cause more cuts and swelling.


Louis's power is still the same with ten ounce gloves.

Do you mean Joe Louis (#2 Heavyweight of all-time, i.e. about 5,000 places above Arreola)? Or am I missing something?

[BEEHOP]

Arreola by KO of course.

Just too much skill and slickness.
