Joe Louis, greatest fighter of all time, & I admit I'm biased coz I grew up on Joe Louis, but according to "Ring Magazine" & "W.B.C. Belt" they finally crunched the numbers & the stats & they determined that Joe Louis is the longest reigning champion, best puncher of all time & best all round fighter of all time, finally my biased opinion has been vindicated, 🙂
I too agree with the assessment of Joe Louis being the best of all time. I think Mike Tyson or perhaps a young George Foreman had a chance to take his spot at the top but probably their era and their extra curricular activities got in the way.
Thing was, aside from his monster punch, Joe Louis was a very good boxer. You could take away his big punch somehow he would stil outobox you. He had the best form and technique of any of the greats. Look how relaxed and deadpan he is, the fluidity of his punches and body movements. He had a good defense with the gloves (catchig, picking. Parrying)head movement and of course footwork of a master boxer. He didn't waste steps like Ali who ran around wastng energy, Louis was economical. He didn't waste a step or a punch and he could knock you out cold with either hand. I believe he is not only the greatest heavyweight in history, but he is also a top p4p fighter and proved his p4p status taking on superheavies like Buddy and Simon😊 when he weighed only 200-205 in his prime.
Joe Louis was one of the all-time greats without question but in my opinion no one was as great a heavy weight boxer as Muhammad Ali in his prime (1964 - 1967). Anyone doubting this should see his 1967 fight with Cleveland Williams, possibly the greatest exhibition of pure boxing skill ever.
@@djangoohara1907watch Ali versus Cleveland Williams in 1967 on UA-cam and THEN tell me Ali in his prime wasn't the greatest. Tyson who in his mid-20s lost to jourmyman Buster Duglas, like Liston could punch harder but doesn't belong in the conversation.
this is what made Louis so incredible - you could see he had vulnerabilities (and big ones) yet he always triumphed in the end. It's easy to be champ when things are going well but the true test is when you're knocked clean out the ring like Dempsey and Louis.
LOUIS WAS GREAT HE BEAT TWO POLAR BEARS, MAX AND BUDDY. THIS WAS A TERRIBLE BIAS REF, WHEN LOUIS WAS KNOCK THRU THE ROPES, AND HE ENTERED BACK INTO THE RING , HE SHOULD'VE BEEN GIVING THE 8 COUNT BY REF, BUT REF, THOUGHT BUDDY COULD KO LOUIS, SO HE LET THAT BEAR GO, RIGHT AT LOUIS, BUT IT BACK FIRED
Ronnie Bishop yes like Tyson. Louis had phenomenal mechanics in punching, possibly the best ever. Strength matters, but mechanics can more than even things. That is why the strongest guys in a gym rarely are the best or hardest punchers, they depend on strength.
@farrell360 Nah, Commentary is added. The only live commentary at the time was radio. Fight film commentaries were added afterwards, and obviously weren't live. And the guy doing this commentary is John Rawling, I think. And he was born 16 years after this fight had taken place!
The final round of the match began around 10:35 of the video. Baer hit the mat for the third time before the 13:00 of the video.That's is only 2:25, of a three minute round. So the bell either was rung too early. Or it was rung because the referee ended the fight.
Can’t believe how big and strong was buddy Baer, Abe simon and primo carnera. And none of them used a left jab and longer reach to keep Louis away I will acknowledge that today’s heavyweight like Bowe, Lewis , golota, the klitchkos and Joshua and fury can used their reach and size advantage
Louis could have just thrown straight rights and crosses. would have been stopped middle of the second round. Baers left never came up above his own ribs!!!!!??? I don't call that baiting when you eat 50 power punches to the left side of the face. craziness! Joe looked good in this fight.
@@ascendediam not sure if you are talking about Louis or Baer but both have amazing power. Let's understand Baer lifted Louis out of the ring and George Forman says Louis was the hardest puncher. It's because Louis had amazing mechanics like his great trainer said Jack Blackburn "god created the perfect heavy weight fighter". Tyson Fury, AJ, Wilder and many others in the top 10 wouldn't last 3 rounds with Louis because of his speed power and precision. And that's without PEDs.
@@alexwillis7093 She's on so many comments saying the same thing, but it's so apparent she doesn't know what she's talking about. Not a single heavy I see can move like Bob Pastor or Jersey Joe Walcott, or finish and cut the ring off like Joe Louis.
james lucke ...You are right....Every chance Art Donovan got he was against Joe...Full of contempt and spite...Like in the Galento fight letting Tony muss up Joes hair with vasoline before the fight starts...giving the opponents of Joe a pat on the ass like " good job" on this ñ - word.....little shit that all adds up to Donovan being a Racist .
No I don't agree I think boxing has declined as a sport fighters aren't as skilled anymore nowadays fighters are just more athletic clinching and inside fighting are a lost art they just hide behind a high guard nowadays even with movement and shifting is lost art fighters can barely even shoulder roll and suffocate punches which was common practice back in the day
Loved Baer's strategy after the 3rd round: Duck...keep your head down! The only thing keeping Baer up was Louis, as Baer desperately did his best to use Louis's body from falling down. I wonder if Louis ever gave these guys credit for taking so much punishment (being the gentleman he was, I'm sure he did). What was the ref doing at the end? waiting for Louis to kill Baer (amazing that he got up twice)
@@therealc.t.7085 I think you are correct in that Ali believed he could beat anyone. To see he and the Brown Bomber in their primes would be incredible.
@@yourroyalhighness7662 A lot of what Ali said about being the Greatest was for show. He admitted it to Jack Dempsey. In terms of PURE BOXING, I take Joe Louis over any heavyweight of any era. Ali, admitted that its styles more than anything. Like, he felt he might have trouble with Marciano. Its styles. Ali, was the Super Athelete. He might not have been the pure boxer, like Louis or have his power, so Ali relied on dancing, and his evasiveness in the 1960s. Later that changed. Early Ali could literally dance all fight. Til the very end if he had to. No one, that I have ever seen though, threw punches like Louis. There is something very unique in his punches. Perhaps, its the economy of motion. Its just something very unique.
So true.... he did.... AND HE MEANT IT! What's more Ali told Louis of a dram he had when he beat Louis. Louis said' Don't ever dream it" Because it could NEVER happen!
To be fair in Louis own words he was never better in his career than the night against Max Baer , on a bad night Louis is phenomenal can't imagine how it felt when he was on top form , Max was absolutely obliterated
None disqualified necessarily, just a good ol as kicking. Gotta give it to Louis, he'd always been the lightest and the smallest fighter compared to most of his appointments.
gabyx66 idk about all that. The Klitschkos(I know I’m butchering the spelling) are big dude with good powerful jabs. That size advantage with that good jab might be the difference but if they didn’t keep Louis at range they could easily get knocked out.
I can't believe how long they let the fights go on back then. This was disgusting watching the ref just stand there and let it go on. I guess that was the times. it took Boom Boom Mancini killing the Korean kid that changed the way they protect the fighters now. No more 15 rounds. 12 rounds for a championship fight.
sit2go Carnera was a big dope? He threw the Jab leaning backwards and when he he threw it forwards he didn't even know how to keep his right hand up half the time which is why he was always tedious with it...they just didn't train the big guys like big guys ...they didn't know how to THEN.
+Will Marini No he wasnt. He actually moved pretty good for a big guy and had good technique on his jab. He just had a glass chin a common weakness for big men in boxing. What are you talking about right hand up? Carnera jabs with his lead hand which is his left. Louis countered him with his right hook which is going land on Carneras left side. LOL it doesn't matter if he kept his right hand up since Louis is hitting him on the opposite side of his head.
+Will Marini I don't need a list by a random person to tell me how good a fighter is. I use my own eyes and my own brain thank you very much. Carnera was a solid fighter at the time with a solid record. Losing to Joe Louis or Max Baer two of the best in that era doesnt make you bad. Thats like me saying Ricky Hatton sucks because he lost to Pacquiao and Mayweather. You can argue all you want if Carnera is the worst or not. At the end of the day he was a good challenger for Louis and Louis made mince meat out of him. And he fought Louis usimg your "flawless gameplan" of simply using the jab. Which didn't work on Louis because of Louis skills and natural fast hand speed.
some not sane odd person said this to me, I've seen your videos on Deontay, as well as your ones on Wlad and the 70s-90s comparison. I find most of it disagreeable, mainly with how you describe the techniques being shown in their respective clips. I agree that Galento, Baer, Braddock, and Carnera were crude boxers, but they were also seen as crude for their own time. I also agree with Marciano's technique being vastly overrated. I disagree with your views on Louis the most. In fact, I think Louis looks great in most of the footage that you use to try and prove your point. In the 70s-90s video, you use Carnera footage to argue that Louis has stiff and sluggish movement, but Louis is moving beautifully in that footage. He's constantly circling with Carnera, moving in and out, feinting, using head movement, parrying, and slipping his jab, while peppering him at will with his own jabs. You argue that Louis looks unsure of himself, but I'd say he looks extremely confident and that Carnera is the only one looking terrified. Carnera has a decent jab but overall looks crude, but Louis looks like a modern boxer in that fight. It's the same case for the footage you use for the Baer fight. You argue that Louis looks sluggish, lacks upper and lower body movement, and can't effectively punch from range or punch while moving. I disagree; in fact, I think Louis pretty much does this in the examples you use. Louis is effortlessly jabbing and hooking from range and is doing it incredibly smoothly. He's using nuanced lateral movement and punching beautifully while doing it. He's dominating the crude Baer like any great boxer would. In your Deontay video, you use a terrified Schmeling getting bulldozed by a rushing Louis in a minute as an example of how Louis and Schmeling can't fight from range or manage distance. I don't think that's really fair; it's clear from the other fights that Louis knows how to use range, angles, and manage distance. I also don't think Louis looks horrible at all here; in fact, he's constantly feinting and anxious to parry that right hand, since you emphasize looking at their hands. They both do well at defending themselves on the inside at 1:18-1:25. Very tight guards. Schmeling cleverly blocks, then rolls Louis' punches at 0:54. I don't think this is the best exampleofr either of their technical brilliance, but I don't think they look bad either. It's important to note that Schmeling said that he was scaredsh*tlesss before the figh, and basically lost before the fightbegan,n like Spinks against Tyson. You also use a pastprime,e Louis and Conn, who had just fought 4 years in the war, from their 1946 fight as your example for why they're inefficient at range, mostly punch just when they stop, stand in front of their opponents waiting to be hit, and even in thiscase,e I still disagree with you. The past prime, basically shot Billy Conn effectively uses lateral movement and isn't predictable with it, parries and overall defends himselfwell,l and jabs from range well. I still think theydido all of these things much better in their first match, especially Conn. I also don't think a pastprime minister,e Ezzard Charles, who reportedly had symptoms of ALS as early as 1951, is the best example to use to define that era's techniques either. Same with the Moore and Dempsey clips. Dempsey,Charles,s and Moore didn't fight like that normally atall,l and when you watch their fights in fulllength,h that becomes clear. Dempsey displays crisp head movement and good technique in his fights with Brennan, Gibbons, and in his training footage with Bill Tate. He even displays good defenseand,d attimes,s technique in his past prime footage against Sharkey and Tunney. 4- yea- old Moore was cooking Marciano at range in the early rounds of their fight, and effectivelydefendingd himself while countering Rock.,Evennthen,n I find Moore's performances against Bivins and Davidson much more impressive. Charles looks modern in his fight against Lloyd Marshall. They're all much more skilled than Deontay. Can you watch my video of Deon/Foreman Louis Vid and tell me if you see anybody that fought Deon or himself or if anybody I showed Foreman fought or himself was less skilled or using the same obsolete tech as the guys I compared them to?
I don't think it was called a boxing ring in those days it was the "gladiator pit" because one nearly gets beaten to death before the fight ends. That last punch thrown by Louis could of killed him.
Baer really clobbers Louis with that left hook at 2:29 Right hand left hook. Baer was championship level in that one moment. The ref doesn't know what the hell he is doing when he stops he round before it is over, helping Louis who had just been down.
Louis is the goat of the heavyweights. Everyone is capable of being beaten, but Louis in his prime would beat any heavyweight champion 2 out of 3, including Muhammad Ali.
Jack Blackburn , Joe's trainer who defeated the Great Joe Gans lightweight title holder in a non title bout in 1904 did not like the racist drunk Art Donovan for obvious reasons...
man i love watching louis. So skilled and talented. Wouldve been a champion if he fought today most likely at cruiserweight but could concievably have fought at hw and still had success because of his skill and punching power.
Larry Barry He beat an old man, the was RETIRED, Marciano is only known for having 6 good fights against old men Joe Louis, Jersey Joe Walcott 1 n 2, Ezzard Charles 1 n 2 and Archie Moore, the rest of his fights were set ups by the MOB that's why he is never mentioned in the Greatest Heavy of all time by no boxing historians cause they all know the truth about Rocky Marciano get listen to Larry Holmes diss'n him the video is on UA-cam.
@@mrgobrien Guadalcanal was aug.42’ to Jan. 43’? Stealing valor , no honor, you do the marines a disservice by your deceit, Joe went in the army and fought exhibition bouts for the army and the USO , which is what they wanted him to do. Morale of the troops.
Buddy baer is terrible. A tall guy who does not know how to jab or fight long. As for Louis his power is completely overrated. He hit this baer guy so many times and he still kept coming forward and Louis was knocked out of the ring but such an amateur boxer. Louis would not make the top 10 today and the only thing buddy baer has in common with guys like wlad Klitschko Anthony Joshua and the likes are size. I rate his skill and ability on the same level as tye fields and Timo hoffman
Earlier on my laptop and im watching ray you know the other guy from that same era side by side and a man named Clemente from 1978s vs danny is 125 and is moving way more fluid and way more advanced he is using feints on top of able to combo faster on top of using lateral movement how about carlos a middleweight as ray was using lateral movement smoothly able to pick off shots from range smoothly and duck and counter smoothly ray looks sloopy stiff making mutiple mistakes im watchin him now vs joe he looks nothing like these guys ray and this era looks to be very over extending alot of times to the body and are very hesitant in most movements they dont fight from range much,they leave themselves open alot alot of times will just throw to the body and not protect themselves the carlos era was able to protect to body with 1 hand while punching to the body they use mostly counters when up close,the lateral movement is very basic they dont seem to be able to punch from range while doing it smoothly they have to stop then punch most the time and their feet are mostly tiptoeing instead of carlos era where its like their a quarterback ready to throw the ball these wasnt big name guys but they clearly as i seen im are way more advanced then rays era on top of being more fluid and made less mistakes So why is it loonies for years on sites say how ray or joe would beat george/Frazier/tyson both/bowe/manny/leonard/ others These guys wouldn't even make amateur in 70s-90s this looks horrible
The comments below praise the pugilist and indeed Joe was special. For his era I believe he was easily the best of all time that includes the narcissist Ali during his era....the Muslim of convenience. What is missing in any of the comments I read is the absolute beating Baer took. The fight today would have been stopped for certain. It was like watching a golfer tee off on defenseless balls. While boxing remains a savage and violent sport rules and regulations concerning the health and welfare of a man such as Baer have improved for the better.

Baer a bully type pushed using his head joe into the corner very easily, was known as a hard puncher yet couldn't damage Joe enough and was tall, and didn't use his reach well,a real hw who was so called as strong as him would've easily been able to grazed joe and had him in retreat,joe never was in retreat
Foreman was way stronger and way smarter and way more advanced than Baer
Billy is a man ali beat even before he was prime, Bill has a similar stance to louis without all the obsolete tech and flaws
Fun fact: Buddy Baer was Max Baer Jr's uncle. Max Jr. played "Jethro" on the "Beverly Hillbillies."
i thought you would say max baers brother dumb fk i dont even know who tf max jr is mf
Bruh! I've never seen somebody get hit so hard they spun. Joe Louis was not a joke 😬
Joe had the best right cross ever

Joe Louis, greatest fighter of all time, & I admit I'm biased coz I grew up on Joe Louis, but according to "Ring Magazine" & "W.B.C. Belt" they finally crunched the numbers & the stats & they determined that Joe Louis is the longest reigning champion, best puncher of all time & best all round fighter of all time, finally my biased opinion has been vindicated, 🙂
I too agree with the assessment of Joe Louis being the best of all time. I think Mike Tyson or perhaps a young George Foreman had a chance to take his spot at the top but probably their era and their extra curricular activities got in the way.
Thing was, aside from his monster punch, Joe Louis was a very good boxer. You could take away his big punch somehow he would stil outobox you. He had the best form and technique of any of the greats. Look how relaxed and deadpan he is, the fluidity of his punches and body movements. He had a good defense with the gloves (catchig, picking. Parrying)head movement and of course footwork of a master boxer. He didn't waste steps like Ali who ran around wastng energy, Louis was economical. He didn't waste a step or a punch and he could knock you out cold with either hand. I believe he is not only the greatest heavyweight in history, but he is also a top p4p fighter and proved his p4p status taking on superheavies like Buddy and Simon😊 when he weighed only 200-205 in his prime.
Joe Louis was one of the all-time greats without question but in my opinion no one was as great a heavy weight boxer as Muhammad Ali in his prime (1964 - 1967). Anyone doubting this should see his 1967 fight with Cleveland Williams, possibly the greatest exhibition of pure boxing skill ever.
@@Steveross2851 ALI (CASSIUS CLAY) NAMED HIMSELF THE GREATEST-HE NEVA HAD A CHIN LIKE LOUIS-OR TYSON-& SAME WITH HIS PUNCH👈☝️💯% COLD, HARD FACTS👍
@@djangoohara1907watch Ali versus Cleveland Williams in 1967 on UA-cam and THEN tell me Ali in his prime wasn't the greatest. Tyson who in his mid-20s lost to jourmyman Buster Duglas, like Liston could punch harder but doesn't belong in the conversation.
this is what made Louis so incredible - you could see he had vulnerabilities (and big ones) yet he always triumphed in the end.
It's easy to be champ when things are going well but the true test is when you're knocked clean out the ring like Dempsey and Louis.
Triumph he did. The other part of the comment, the big vulnerabilities part, is rubbish.
LOUIS WAS GREAT HE BEAT TWO POLAR BEARS, MAX AND BUDDY. THIS WAS A TERRIBLE BIAS REF, WHEN LOUIS WAS KNOCK THRU THE ROPES, AND HE ENTERED BACK INTO THE RING , HE SHOULD'VE BEEN GIVING THE 8 COUNT BY REF, BUT REF, THOUGHT BUDDY COULD KO LOUIS, SO HE LET THAT BEAR GO, RIGHT AT LOUIS, BUT IT BACK FIRED
Fuck! Look at the weight difference.Damn!
louis was a panther inn the ring.quick and deadly.his power might even surprise todays heavyweights
Like Tyson? Ha
Baer was a big as a modern hw
Ronnie Bishop yes like Tyson. Louis had phenomenal mechanics in punching, possibly the best ever. Strength matters, but mechanics can more than even things. That is why the strongest guys in a gym rarely are the best or hardest punchers, they depend on strength.
@farrell360 Nah, Commentary is added. The only live commentary at the time was radio. Fight film commentaries were added afterwards, and obviously weren't live.
And the guy doing this commentary is John Rawling, I think. And he was born 16 years after this fight had taken place!
The final round of the match began around 10:35 of the video. Baer hit the mat for the third time before the 13:00 of the video.That's is only 2:25, of a three minute round. So the bell either was rung too early. Or it was rung because the referee ended the fight.
Or you need to sober up. And lay off the street drugs. 👈👺
His champ brother Max never hurt Louis or lander in solid punches, like Buddy did.
OLD BUDDY BEAR TOOK A KNIFE 2 A GUN FIGHT HE WAS JOE'S PUNCHING BAG I'M BEWILDERED THAT HE DIDN'T THROW MORE PUNCHES
He thought he was going to go the distance and didn't want to tire himself out too soon.
Louis misses with jab at 0:45 but his jab was great and this proves Louis could hang with the super heavies of today!
Louis stands no chance whatsoever against the super heavies of today. Even someone like Haye could beat the crap out of him.

Louis feasted on the big men he fought.
Joe Louis....love you
Can’t believe how big and strong was buddy Baer, Abe simon and primo carnera. And none of them used a left jab and longer reach to keep Louis away I will acknowledge that today’s heavyweight like Bowe, Lewis , golota, the klitchkos and Joshua and fury can used their reach and size advantage
That will forever remain to be seen but....I think Louis would put them all on their but.
Jab is useless without superior hand speed
Both Simon and Carnera tried to keep Joe away with the jab. Watch the fights. Louis just slips and wrecks them with crosses and hooks.
Yes, Joe louis got the better of him, but I am very impressed with Baer. He fought very well.
And Max Baer's younger brother.
Something about the way Baer falls. No chicken leg ala Juda..no flopping around ala Berbick...just a pretty little pirouette and crumbles to the mat!
Louis could have just thrown straight rights and crosses. would have been stopped middle of the second round. Baers left never came up above his own ribs!!!!!??? I don't call that baiting when you eat 50 power punches to the left side of the face. craziness!
Joe looked good in this fight.
Greatness
“Almost knocked out” and he got up right away without hesitation.
Very interesting that Louis fought both brothers, Max and Buddy.
Crushing right hand ! The beginning of the end !
Nowadays Joe surely would not be "heavy" in any sport. I have been that weight at 5 feet 8ins.
No belief in weight lifting affected both martial arts and boxing for decades. Baer looks very smooth but he was very strong.
Todays boxing fans would have predicted Baer to win just because of his size. People back then knew Louis would destroy him
Novices mutiple 70s-90s move way better and more advanced then this
That's true @llook05 today's fans would believe Baer hits 1/5th harder because he's 1/5th bigger 😆
@@ascendediam not sure if you are talking about Louis or Baer but both have amazing power.
Let's understand Baer lifted Louis out of the ring and George Forman says Louis was the hardest puncher.
It's because Louis had amazing mechanics like his great trainer said Jack Blackburn "god created the perfect heavy weight fighter".
Tyson Fury, AJ, Wilder and many others in the top 10 wouldn't last 3 rounds with Louis because of his speed power and precision.
And that's without PEDs.
@@alexwillis7093 lunatic get help
@@alexwillis7093 She's on so many comments saying the same thing, but it's so apparent she doesn't know what she's talking about. Not a single heavy I see can move like Bob Pastor or Jersey Joe Walcott, or finish and cut the ring off like Joe Louis.
What happened to the original soundtrack? This commentary is overwrought.
Louis never in any doubt.
Fucking crooked referees ending the round before the bell even sounds, just because their favorite fighter is in trouble. Wow.
Joe wasn't in trouble. He dealt with Baer.
yeah. he is saying Baer was the referee's favorite... which is pretty obvious.
james lucke ...You are right....Every chance Art Donovan got he was against Joe...Full of contempt and spite...Like in the Galento fight letting Tony muss up Joes hair with vasoline before the fight starts...giving the opponents of Joe a pat on the ass like " good job" on this ñ - word.....little shit that all adds up to Donovan being a Racist .
How did the ref let that fight go on so long. Poor guy was almost killed in there.
Different times old love
No I don't agree I think boxing has declined as a sport fighters aren't as skilled anymore nowadays fighters are just more athletic clinching and inside fighting are a lost art they just hide behind a high guard nowadays even with movement and shifting is lost art fighters can barely even shoulder roll and suffocate punches which was common practice back in the day
Loved Baer's strategy after the 3rd round: Duck...keep your head down! The only thing keeping Baer up was Louis, as Baer desperately did his best to use Louis's body from falling down. I wonder if Louis ever gave these guys credit for taking so much punishment (being the gentleman he was, I'm sure he did). What was the ref doing at the end? waiting for Louis to kill Baer (amazing that he got up twice)
After Joe Louis passed away, Ali paid him a huge compliment by saying that it was Louis and not himself who was the greatest heavyweight of all time.
I love Joe and he was def one of the best/greatest ever but I doubt Ali believed that he couldn’t beat him.
@@therealc.t.7085 I think you are correct in that Ali believed he could beat anyone. To see he and the Brown Bomber in their primes would be incredible.
@@yourroyalhighness7662 A lot of what Ali said about being the Greatest was for show. He admitted it to Jack Dempsey. In terms of PURE BOXING, I take Joe Louis over any heavyweight of any era. Ali, admitted that its styles more than anything. Like, he felt he might have trouble with Marciano. Its styles. Ali, was the Super Athelete. He might not have been the pure boxer, like Louis or have his power, so Ali relied on dancing, and his evasiveness in the 1960s. Later that changed. Early Ali could literally dance all fight. Til the very end if he had to. No one, that I have ever seen though, threw punches like Louis. There is something very unique in his punches. Perhaps, its the economy of motion. Its just something very unique.
@@nthdegree1269 Louis was greatness personified. It would have thrilling to see he and Ali go at it when both were in their absolute primes
So true.... he did.... AND HE MEANT IT! What's more Ali told Louis of a dram he had when he beat Louis. Louis said' Don't ever dream it"
Because it could NEVER happen!
Classic
2:32 that's the scene I was looking for.
2:32 don't see that every day
How come we could see the ropes through Joe Louis' body...
"X Files theme plays"
Buddy put up a much better fight than his brother Max did.
His brother Teddy just stood there for most of the fight :')
To be fair in Louis own words he was never better in his career than the night against Max Baer , on a bad night Louis is phenomenal can't imagine how it felt when he was on top form , Max was absolutely obliterated
The ref kept breaking them up while they were still fighting
None disqualified necessarily, just a good ol as kicking. Gotta give it to Louis, he'd always been the lightest and the smallest fighter compared to most of his appointments.
Love Joe Louis. Great, great man not just great boxer
Why does tha gloves look smaller back then🤔
They had less padding
At 2:31 , WHY wasn't there a count by the ref..... OBVIOUSLY a knockdown. !!!
Baer blew it when he didn't follow up well after he knocked Louis down in the first round.
The big baer enters the ring & Joe says yeah bring it....
I was in attendance at that fight. Second row. Joe Louis was a great champion. I’ve talked with him on several occasions.

You re joking.Any klitscko would finish quick,both,baer and louis
gabyx66 idk about all that. The Klitschkos(I know I’m butchering the spelling) are big dude with good powerful jabs. That size advantage with that good jab might be the difference but if they didn’t keep Louis at range they could easily get knocked out.
I think not
Laughing at you jokers that think having a weight advantage means you wont get knocked out lol
Ouch 🤕 that fight should of been stopped after the first KO .
I can't believe how long they let the fights go on back then. This was disgusting watching the ref just stand there and let it go on. I guess that was the times. it took Boom Boom Mancini killing the Korean kid that changed the way they protect the fighters now. No more 15 rounds. 12 rounds for a championship fight.
Why should they stop it ?
This is what it should be today too. Let them hit each until one is KOd
Jethro's old man was pretty good.

Jethro uncle here. His dad was Max Baer
Had this lummox learned to work behind his jab,he would beat louis and company in this era.Did nothing but everything wong.
Lol that shit didn't work Louis. Primo Carnera tried that jab technique on Louis. Louis just countered him throwing his right hook of the jab.
sit2go Carnera was a big dope? He threw the Jab leaning backwards and when he he threw it forwards he didn't even know how to keep his right hand up half the time which is why he was always tedious with it...they just didn't train the big guys like big guys ...they didn't know how to THEN.
+Will Marini No he wasnt. He actually moved pretty good for a big guy and had good technique on his jab. He just had a glass chin a common weakness for big men in boxing.
What are you talking about right hand up? Carnera jabs with his lead hand which is his left. Louis countered him with his right hook which is going land on Carneras left side. LOL it doesn't matter if he kept his right hand up since Louis is hitting him on the opposite side of his head.
sit2go Carnera top 5 worst champs ever just use google i'll save you the break down why......kid!
+Will Marini I don't need a list by a random person to tell me how good a fighter is. I use my own eyes and my own brain thank you very much. Carnera was a solid fighter at the time with a solid record. Losing to Joe Louis or Max Baer two of the best in that era doesnt make you bad. Thats like me saying Ricky Hatton sucks because he lost to Pacquiao and Mayweather.
You can argue all you want if Carnera is the worst or not. At the end of the day he was a good challenger for Louis and Louis made mince meat out of him. And he fought Louis usimg your "flawless gameplan" of simply using the jab. Which didn't work on Louis because of Louis skills and natural fast hand speed.
So he kicked both their asses, Max and Buddy.
Buddy had roles in many films, including a major part in Quo Vadis
some not sane odd person said this to me, I've seen your videos on Deontay, as well as your ones on Wlad and the 70s-90s comparison. I find most of it disagreeable, mainly with how you describe the techniques being shown in their respective clips. I agree that Galento, Baer, Braddock, and Carnera were crude boxers, but they were also seen as crude for their own time. I also agree with Marciano's technique being vastly overrated. I disagree with your views on Louis the most. In fact, I think Louis looks great in most of the footage that you use to try and prove your point. In the 70s-90s video, you use Carnera footage to argue that Louis has stiff and sluggish movement, but Louis is moving beautifully in that footage. He's constantly circling with Carnera, moving in and out, feinting, using head movement, parrying, and slipping his jab, while peppering him at will with his own jabs. You argue that Louis looks unsure of himself, but I'd say he looks extremely confident and that Carnera is the only one looking terrified. Carnera has a decent jab but overall looks crude, but Louis looks like a modern boxer in that fight. It's the same case for the footage you use for the Baer fight. You argue that Louis looks sluggish, lacks upper and lower body movement, and can't effectively punch from range or punch while moving. I disagree; in fact, I think Louis pretty much does this in the examples you use. Louis is effortlessly jabbing and hooking from range and is doing it incredibly smoothly. He's using nuanced lateral movement and punching beautifully while doing it. He's dominating the crude Baer like any great boxer would. In your Deontay video, you use a terrified Schmeling getting bulldozed by a rushing Louis in a minute as an example of how Louis and Schmeling can't fight from range or manage distance. I don't think that's really fair; it's clear from the other fights that Louis knows how to use range, angles, and manage distance. I also don't think Louis looks horrible at all here; in fact, he's constantly feinting and anxious to parry that right hand, since you emphasize looking at their hands. They both do well at defending themselves on the inside at 1:18-1:25. Very tight guards. Schmeling cleverly blocks, then rolls Louis' punches at 0:54. I don't think this is the best exampleofr either of their technical brilliance, but I don't think they look bad either. It's important to note that Schmeling said that he was scaredsh*tlesss before the figh, and basically lost before the fightbegan,n like Spinks against Tyson. You also use a pastprime,e Louis and Conn, who had just fought 4 years in the war, from their 1946 fight as your example for why they're inefficient at range, mostly punch just when they stop, stand in front of their opponents waiting to be hit, and even in thiscase,e I still disagree with you. The past prime, basically shot Billy Conn effectively uses lateral movement and isn't predictable with it, parries and overall defends himselfwell,l and jabs from range well. I still think theydido all of these things much better in their first match, especially Conn. I also don't think a pastprime minister,e Ezzard Charles, who reportedly had symptoms of ALS as early as 1951, is the best example to use to define that era's techniques either. Same with the Moore and Dempsey clips. Dempsey,Charles,s and Moore didn't fight like that normally atall,l and when you watch their fights in fulllength,h that becomes clear. Dempsey displays crisp head movement and good technique in his fights with Brennan, Gibbons, and in his training footage with Bill Tate. He even displays good defenseand,d attimes,s technique in his past prime footage against Sharkey and Tunney. 4- yea- old Moore was cooking Marciano at range in the early rounds of their fight, and effectivelydefendingd himself while countering Rock.,Evennthen,n I find Moore's performances against Bivins and Davidson much more impressive. Charles looks modern in his fight against Lloyd Marshall. They're all much more skilled than Deontay.
Can you watch my video of Deon/Foreman Louis Vid and tell me if you see anybody that fought Deon or himself or if anybody I showed Foreman fought or himself was less skilled or using the same obsolete tech as the guys I compared them to?
Baer just had no real defense for Louis. Either inside or outside.
I don't think it was called a boxing ring in those days it was the "gladiator pit" because one nearly gets beaten to death before the fight ends.
That last punch thrown by Louis could of killed him.

The ref doesn't know what the hell he is doing when he stops he round before it is over, helping Louis who had just been down.
Louis is the goat of the heavyweights. Everyone is capable of being beaten, but Louis in his prime would beat any heavyweight champion 2 out of 3, including Muhammad Ali.
Louis fighting today would utterly demolish bums like Fury and Wilder and Joshua. Their big bodies wouldn't save them.
Buddy is much more polished than Max

Buddy baer is terrible. A tall guy who does not know how to jab or fight long. As for Louis his power is completely overrated. He hit this baer guy so many times and he still kept coming forward and Louis was knocked out of the ring but such an amateur boxer. Louis would not make the top 10 today and the only thing buddy baer has in common with guys like wlad Klitschko Anthony Joshua and the likes are size. I rate his skill and ability on the same level as tye fields and Timo hoffman
Earlier on my laptop and im watching ray you know the other guy from that same era side by side and a man named Clemente from 1978s vs danny is 125 and is moving way more fluid and way more advanced he is using feints on top of able to combo faster on top of using lateral movement
how about carlos a middleweight as ray was using lateral movement smoothly able to pick off shots from range smoothly and duck and counter smoothly
ray looks sloopy stiff making mutiple mistakes im watchin him now vs joe he looks nothing like these guys
ray and this era looks to be very over extending alot of times to the body and are very hesitant in most movements
they dont fight from range much,they leave themselves open alot
alot of times will just throw to the body and not protect themselves the carlos era was able to protect to body with 1 hand while punching to the body
they use mostly counters when up close,the lateral movement is very basic they dont seem to be able to punch from range while doing it smoothly they have to stop then punch most the time and their feet are mostly tiptoeing instead of carlos era where its like their a quarterback ready to throw the ball
these wasnt big name guys but they clearly as i seen im are way more advanced then rays era on top of being more fluid and made less mistakes
So why is it loonies for years on sites say how ray or joe would beat george/Frazier/tyson both/bowe/manny/leonard/ others
These guys wouldn't even make amateur in 70s-90s this looks horrible
The comments below praise the pugilist and indeed Joe was special. For his era I believe he was easily the best of all time that includes the narcissist Ali during his era....the Muslim of convenience.
What is missing in any of the comments I read is the absolute beating Baer took. The fight today would have been stopped for certain. It was like watching a golfer tee off on defenseless balls. While boxing remains a savage and violent sport rules and regulations concerning the health and welfare of a man such as Baer have improved for the better.
