    Tyson Fury vs Prime Joe Louis

    Personally I think boxing has way evolved since Louis's time but I saw this question asked on a different forum and surprisingly many users were picking Louis to KO Fury.

    So what do you guys think?

    A lot of Fury fan girls will say Louis has no chance.

    But if Cunningham could drop Fury and have him on ***** Street several times, you bet your ass Joe Louis could do the same.

      I think Louis is greater, but head to head I’d probably go with Fury if it’s under the modern rules.

      It also depends what rules, era etc they’re fighting in.

        I'm sure fury would fight him in the exact same way he fought Cunningham also.

            Fury wins if he fights smartly. Probably a late stoppage.

              - - Flubber ducks all time great Louis just like he ducked record purses vs AJ.

              Dumbly, probably an early bankruptcy...you're welcome...

                Id go with fury. Fury can easily learn by watching his opponents on dvd, YouTube and learning is easily accesible. But if Louis was born in 1990 then topic takes on new meaning.

                  Yet Fury got dropped by multiple short dudes in his career including cruiserweight Cunningham u moron.

                  Wilder fight got u all fooled. Usyk is gonna beat the brakes off of this fat cheat.

                    But in his prime, could he have beaten a modern giant gypsy like Tyson Fury?

                    Personally I think boxing has evolved a lot since Louis's time, but in another forum many people actually picked Prime Louis to KO Current Fury.

                    So what do you guys think?
                    - - How could Joe KO Flubber when Flubber ducks Joe like he did the Wlad rematch and a couple of AJ offers, all significantly larger purses than the mediocre presence of Flubber is used to?

                    U like Sissyboy fighters?
