Prime George Foreman vs Prime Joe Louis

[uncle ben]

Who wins this one, does Foreman bowl him over or does Louis counter punch him to the stone age?

Wow what a match up.I just wonder what the effects of short jolting Louis right hand would have on George?

George couldn't take too many shots.

Neither could Louis. I would pick Foreman.

I say Foreman early, Louis late. Foreman, IMO, would be best served going for a quick KO. But the problem is, he leaves himself open to be easily countered and Louis was a master counter puncher.

Incredibly tough pick, Louis has a track record of stopping bigger slower targets, Foreman however has more ability than those bigger slower targets.

I feel both at their best though, Louis gets this.

Lol, you and I recently have shared a similar wavelength on these threads. you said it... with the caveat, I don't know who gets it.

Louis may, or may not, have a suspect chin... depending on the thread, the argument, the criteria... At least as far as Foreman's punch is concerned.

Im thinking... Its a bad match up for Louis. Foreman just gets there first...

I think foreman hits to hard for Louis considering his size.....Louis did get hit with a lot of shots when in the ring and foreman would probably take his head off when he got to him.
Louis is great but I just think he gets beat down by foreman

After watching Louis vs Baer, even if Foreman is superior to Baer I don't think get takes it over 15. Louis hits him too much

I fancy lewis to hit the deck but still stop foreman.
