Joe Louis v RJJ at Heavyweight

[Zerwas1]

At his peak around 200 lbs. The difference is that he didn't need to be juiced up like RJ was.

Well, than we have to take in account that RJJ comes in juiced, which gives him a big advantage in this fight

Roy Jones is my favorite active fighter. And an all time great.
Joe Louis is one of my all time favorite fighters and an all time great.

Wiser men than me have said "A great big man beats a great little man."
With a gun to my head, I would pick Joe Louis, mostly out of respect for him.
BUT, in the back of my mind, I would be wondering....If little, skinny Billy Conn can outbox Joe for as long as he did before being splattered, what would RJ have done?

And something like that is enough for me to go against the pack and go with Jones, quite comfortably as well.
