    True,,

    I was going under the impression of it being a clean ko, not a ref stoppage..

    Yes a ref stoppage is a legit possibilty, i just cant see louis laying him out

      Took a peek at his record;
      Louis was a 75% KO ratio, thats high in any weight class! 52 KO's in 69 bouts.
      3 losses 2 stoppage his KO looses were 15 years apart!

      Thats pretty good when your in with the big boys. Ray.

        That is 100 percent correct.

        And with all of his wars in the era of the best heavyweight fighter assembly in history, Chavalo is still 100 percent lucid with all of his facility's still intact.

        Which is astonishing.

        As I said in my previous post, the truck would have undoubtedly been damaged in a head on with Chavalo.

        EDIT: Or in layman's terms "That's one tough Mother Fu@ker!"

          Ironic isn't it? And some fighters that didn't get hit clean much wind up punch drunk. Go figure.

            In a recent interview, Chuvalo commented on the backside of his former occupation.
            He is fully aware of that he can be struck with sudden dementia tomorrow, so every new day he is waking up healthy, he sees as a gift.
            Shouldn't we all?

              Yeah, Louis would probably stun Chuvalo and knock him into the ropes for the TKO.

                There was a blurb where a doctor actually commented that Chavez's cranium had extra density. I guess they were performing a routine of some sort.....They had at one point told me during an Xray that my leg was so dense that the xray had to be redone...so I know this can happen!

                This may explain some reasons for the ability to take a punch.

                Anyhow I know for a fact that my wife has the thickest skull.....never mind.

                  See the Max Baer fight.

                  I think Chuvalo goes out on his knee or his face if they have a ref from Louis' time. Louis' offense would break any chin if it was there for the taking long enough with nothing to keep him honest. I think Chuvalo wouldnt be able to deal with his jab, again, like Baer.

                  Chuvalo will try to assert his strength and walk into many loaded traps. Eventually he would flinch and Louis would be ready to tee off. Unlike Frazier and Foreman, Louis punches in fast combinations with great accuracy. Itd be a bad ending for a good man.
