Can we stop pretending previous generation heavyweights are too small? Usyk and Joe Louis are the same size

Who knows?

Everyone except you!

but was he a better boxer? Who knows

His best fights were about 90 years ago man lol. Saying that he could definitely beat a guy like Usyk, I mean OK, but no one would really know that. Maybe he would, maybe he wouldn't. Impossible to know really and impossible to compare eras.

It's very possible that over a span of about 90 years, the sport passes you by....it's a little like saying 100% that Babe Ruth could hit the same amount of home runs today as he did back then...

“Was he a better boxer.”

The answer is yes.

Thanks for your opinion.

if Louis was big enough to KO Primo Carnera then he would be big enough to beat AJ

Go watch a Primo Carnera fight...he couldn't fight AT ALL. The 1930s-40s was a joke

Free ShaneMosleySr. Daring the mods to ban you ain't a smart idea, tho.
Cheers, bro. Maybe some mental health break is necessary sometimes.

Exactly man I hope it’s not a permanent ban

I don't think so. There are bans ranging from 3 days to infinity. I saw a few posters released today from a short ban. Shane, despite his threads, has a character and not that malicious.

The lineal heavyweight champions from all previous eras would destroy every fighter in this era.

Dont tell me they’re too small. They clearly aren’t.

Oh he said lous

Well the answer is the same, Louis best wins were vs cavemen, there's no comparrison.

[Mr Giggles]

Usyk went life and death with chisora. Usyk got lucky that AJ got the gameplan wrong.

This whole Usyk hype is ridiculous beyond belief. He’s a cruiserweight, and a different rejuvenated AJ will knock him out
