    I think so, yeah. He'd probably have to come from behind on the cards to do it though. Maybe in about 9 rounds.

    Louis had trouble with lesser guys, Tommy Farr, Arturo Godoy, Billy Conn so Charles has a real chance to win. Louis' KO win is the most likely outcome though

    Louis really didn;t have any toruble with Tommy Farr... it's a myth

    He had trouble hurting him because Farr fought a very negative fight, but he basically dominated with his jab and won a one-sided decision

    Hut called it... Charles was a masterful boxer and he'd be ahead but Joe Louis had a way of catching up to you

    Charles never gets his due for his time at Heavy.

    I think he does, tbh. He doesn't get anything like his due for his overall career, IMO.

    this


    His time at light heavy is frankly, ridiculous

    And even past his best, there are these great, quality wins that pop up
