I watched an old man and two prospects drop him on his head and hurt him multiple times. Cervantes looked skilled but old, Johnson looked strong and not much else and the jap was just tough and game.
So? Joe Louis was dropped eleven times, usually early in his fights because his stance. Being down and being out is not the same thing
Yeah, but Louis' whole mystique isn't based on the idea that he couldn't be harmed. Don't get me wrong, Pryor bounced back up. Literally. And he had amazing recuperative powers but these weren't flash knock downs either. If punches make him crumple or go rigid he can be knocked out.
