Funny to see Ali's mouth knew no boundaries even back then. Joe Louis was the epitome of a champion boxer, respectful, patriotic and kind outside of the ring.
Joe is my favorite for a reason
Max Schmelling was not a Nazi...he actually was a really good man and later became a life long friend of the Brown Bomber's.
He was also known to help people escape Hitler and was NEVER a card carrying member of his party.
Sure wish we got to see the Joe Louis who fought Max the second time in later fights because, IMHO, that was the ONLY time we got to see Joe unleash himself.
He was such a Good man that he simply didn't want to hurt other people...which is similar to how Max Baer thought, since he killed 2 other guys in the ring.
I think the destruction of Buddy Baer in a single round and the thrashing of Abe Simon's in their rematch is also a prime Louis.
I really wouldn't favor anyone to beat 1938-1942 Louis.
My favorite boxer of all time, a great patriot and human being...the Great Joe "the brown bomber" Louis...!!!
Nothing more american than dragging someone down their alive and giving them respect when their dead.
Comment might be 5 years old but Jesus Christ it’s a dumb as fuck one
The greatest of all time
Thanks for loading this, Joe Louis was indeed a great fighter
its really sad how it went with his life after his boxing. Wish he was treated as he shouldve been treated
Agreed...pained me to learn his life story...but still, such a GREAT human being and American Patriot.
Shame he was treated as he was.
One of history's greatest champions.Good thing for Marciano that Louis was older. Otherwise Rocky's mug would've been caved in.
I love the rock but joe Luis he could never be. Aside from being the greatest heavyweight talent boxing has ever seen. Joe Luis despite being grossly mistreated buy his own country and its government was a beutiful human being.

You're a punk...
ROCKY didn't want to fight his good friend Joe Louis but Joe said to him ROCKY I need the fight and after the fight they remained great friends with ROCKY getting Joe appearance gigs. You have no clue of what you speak as an outsider far in the distance and now you've been called out by the family member of the legend you disparaged.
Marciano is great, a tremendous puncher , stayed low and mixed up his attack going to body and head. Joe Louis was at a higher level than Marciano, though. Prime Louis had power, speed and threw textbook punches. Marciano struggled with an aging Walcott and an aging Charles. He had back and forth battles with them. I think a prime Louis simply too good all around for Marciano. And I rank Rockyvery high all time best heavyweights. I rank only Louis,Ali, Holmes, and Foreman above Marciano.
No need to put ROCKY MARCIANO down from afar to appreciate Joe Louis….
You see to you legendary athletes are abstract to you however they have families who know the real story and Joe was a great friend of our family. Joe openly said to all who asked including at dinner with our family on several occasions that ROCKY’S style would have posed difficulty for Joe even in his prime. As joe said I needed to extend my arms to her my combinations off and ROCKY crowded you. He was murder to fight. ROCKY hurt you every time he contacted you. When a reporter said to Joe, Joe you wrote the book on boxing surely in your prime you would have defeated ROCKY MARCIANO to which Joe replied yeah I may have wrote the book but ROCKY throws the entire library at you so watch your lip lil Mike. Don’t text what you would never say in person face to face with a MARCIANO…. go do your homework school is in session because when you speak out of key it’s the equivalent to sending a boy to do a MAN’S errand.

In direct response to your comments on ROCKY MARCIANO here are the facts:
Joe Louis and Joe Walcott on met in Madison Square Garden on December 5th 1947 with Walcott knocking down joe Louis in the 4th and 11th rounds and clearly out boxing him over the course of the entire fight. Referee Ruby Goldstein who was a terrific judge scored the fight unanimously for Walcott with the two other judges inexplicably awarding the contest to Joe Louis. Joe Louis was so disgusted with his performance that he did something which has never been done in Heavyweight Championship history which was he attempted to leave the ring and head to the dressing room prior to the decision being read, an acknowledgment that he thought he had lost the fight.
Ezzard Charels is the only fighter to have outboxed Joe Louis in a title fight over 15 rounds.
Joe Louis could be hit and hit hard evidenced by him being knocked down 10 times in his career and some of those tones by pedestrian boxers such as Buddy Baer, Tony Galento and on two occasions Louis was knocked to the canvas multiple times during a contest.
As I mentioned on an earlier post within this thread joe in the company of my father and many others at Cesars Palace at dinner said that ROCKY’S style gave him fits and not only made him highly uncomfortable but just plain hurt meaning they constant bombardment onslaught battering that didn’t allow Louis to get set nor provide him room to extend his arms to get off his famous combinations so ya gotta be careful when you hypothesize about this guy did this with this fighter so XYZ. There’s a reason they play the games on Sunday just like why they fight the fights, it’s to see who win and as far as winning goes among all the greats to lace em up ONLY ONE, just ONE REFUSED to LOOSE and that record stands today some 698 years later and the fighter with the best chance to go unbeaten will if he’s able to do it will do so with an asterisk on the record due to his draw on his record.
A shame people watched and loved him but he couldn’t drink out of the same fountain as them
Lol. Moron
Life is a journey,if only Michael Jackson, had called it a day at the height of his powers, after the "Thriller" release.Joe was a good boxer and a murderous puncher.
One of the best, no question.
I think Michael Jackson was like a perfectionist and wanted his latest tour to be the best ever. He put so much stress on himself working to be the best. His anxious feelings about being able to achieve his own goals he set got him taking medication to help calm his nerves, help him sleep, etc. People would love his concert if he just stood still and sang. So many millions of people liked that guy and that guy's songs. They still do. Sadly, he placed so much pressure on himself. I guess that is part of why he was so damn good as an entertainer/singer/songwriter.
did anyone else notice that alot of the background music was from movie soundtracks IE. Kubrick and Scorsese
Epic the Louis vs Marciano fight.
Max Schmeling didnt see shit in Joes style. Jack Johnson bitter because the Joe Louis camp wouldnt take him on as a trainer so being that he was on the run in Europe already he lent Max a hand and told him about the jab opening. Max was no technician in boxing now Jack was and if they'd said Tunney saw it I woulda believed it.
Any source? Since when was Johnson on the run in the 30's?
@@rebelliousredneckvlogs in that article they act like Schmelling knew it on his own but he didn't. I'm trying to find the fellas name who said that Jack told Schmelling camp how to beat him. I saw it on a documentary many years ago
Schmeling fought a brilliant fight tactically. He destroyed Joe and beat him
Up for 11 rounds
@@Ryan2022 then Joe beat the dust off of him
@@babywise2096 that he did. Froze him with a kidney shot.
MAX WAS A VERY GOOD MAN.
Could anyone please upload Muhammad Ali Reputations documentary if the have it. It's a great documentary.
It used to be on RUclips a long time ago. I’ll love to see that again
I think Rocky would be a live underdog. One good Suzie Q could change the course of the whole fight.
Does anyone know the name of the music at 36:36secs? The part where Marciano knocks Louis out?
E lucevan le stelle
@@alanalanov244 Thank you lots! Top man
White America called Louis "A credit to his race" lol.
A white sports writer said he "was a credit to his race, the human race"......NOT what you said.
Donald Trump is a credit to his race lol 😆
You forgot the rest of the sentance. "the human race"
This is a GREAT lesson on how being a sellout ONLY leads you to the trap. The United States knew Louis was a nice guy and they played on it. Don't expect anyone else to say this, folks tend to want to focus on how sorry they felt for him. His personality told every crook he met to "take advantage of me". And to think, everyone was mad when Ali insisted on being opposite of him.
In what way was Joe louis a "sellout".
Louis was opposite of sellout. He did things through the kindness of his heart, not even worrying about himself. Ever see how the nazis teated Jews and other minority groups in Germany and in all the countries Germany annexed and took control over in the 1930s and 1940s? Joe saw it. He even correctly noted, Hitler hates us (African Americans and people of color), as he is hating the Jews. Louis, like most all Americans, wanted to stop Hitler and Imperialistic Japan. He did not join the military and donate purses for glory, but because he recognized the evil in Germany and Japan. And they wanted to destroy us.
Ali really respected Louis, he credits Robinson and Louis as his two idols he looked up to in boxing. Ali was a showman, he wanted people to come see him fight. He was smart. He said he saw Gogeous George get everyone hating him, but they paid money to see him wrestle most wanting him to lose. So, Ali badmouthed other heavyweights and spoke incredibly and hysterically in a boastful manner about himself. Ali and Louis, two best heavyweight boxers who ever lived, IMO.
Louis also garnered tremendous respect from African Americans when he boxed. THe whole world looked up to Joe Louis when he boxed. It was only when the USA government screwed Louis over taxes they said he owed them when the trouble began for Louis. Before then, African Americans, including a small child then Muhammad Ali and his family idolized Louis. Louis beat up many white people, beat the hell out of them, many of the white top contenders in boxing, and the white and black and brown, yellow, red, etc, people in USA loved him. Louis transcended race. USA government is the villain and the dog, not Joe Louis.
Louis kicked ass in the boxing ring. A nice guy outside the ring, but a killer in it. The greatest knockout artist all time, all weight classes, who ever lived, IMO. Ali is also great, Really great. Ali does not do like Louis did to Schmeling in fight #2, though. Different strengths nd weaknesses as boxers, Ali and Louis. One thing they shared: each had very, very, very few weaknesses in the boxing ring.
Ali had very little after retirement he was told what to do by the Nation of Islam so he was took advantage of also
Ali was owned by NOI dude, one of the whackiest religions ever coined. Louis didn't sell out. He fought for his country, after it was attacked. It wasnt the country that stabbed him in the back, it was the IRS. Sickening, but doesn't equal being a sellout.
The second fight with smelling the rumor Louis had loaded fists and I watched the fight it might be true Louis broke everything he hit everything.
BULLSHIT.
That's NOT in Joe's character...so obviously you don't know the man.
The difference is that in the 2nd fight, Joe "unleashed" himself and went full out. We NEVER get to see him like that again and it's known that he didn't hit other people as hard as he could because he didn't want to hurt people. Similar to Max Baer in regards to that.
Louis would ruin the image he had tried so hard to build if he was caught with loaded gloves.
The fastest, hardest punching heavyweight of all time needs no loaded gloves to crush opposition.
It's sad that so many boxers forget to pay taxes. Sugar ray, holyfield , Tyson and Louis.
Forget ?
The problem is not understanding that once you are paid, you need to set aside some of that money to pay taxes. If they had a good person knowledgeable in finance, the boxer could have been told what amount is good to set aside. Or the boxer, himself, could just set aside a conservative amount.
With Louis, though, the real crime THE GOVERNMENT COMMITTED IMO, is taking Joe's full purses he was paid for 2 bouts during WW2 years, then saying he owes taxes on that money. That is what happened to Louis. Louis gave the military; army relief and navy relief his entire purses. Then the government still made him pay taxes on that amount he gave them. Louis's purses were huge for that time. He gave them both to the government for the military. Then the government said you still have to pay us taxes on all that money.
I think Leonard had a good attorney. He definitely did in early 1980s, late 1970s. I remember. I think, Mike Trainer. From memory, it could be wrong name. lol Leonard is still very, very wealthy. Hearns, sadly, is the opposite. Has very, very little money. Holyfield, Tyson, Louis, yes, all of them also had trouble hanging on to their money. Louis, definitely, was railroaded by the USA government after he did so much, putting in time working for, and giving money to helping, our government.
@@nycinstyle Ty...very good comment and accurate.
Joe didn't intentionally try to fraud the IRS...and it came as a shock that he owed anything.
Speaks a great deal about his character that he just absorbed and tried to do his best to pay it back...shame really that it even happened when it came from a patriotic motive during WW2...!...especially in light of the efforts and sacrifices that Joe already made...!
@@BrotherPatriot It is ridiculous. An embarrassing moment when the USA government actually went forward and taxed Joe Louis on his earnings for 2 fights. One in which he donated HIS ENTIRE EARNINGS TO the army relief and the other he donated HIS ENTIRE EARNINGS TO the navy relief. The government committed a crime, IMO. They stole from Louis. He gave the government's army and navy all the money he made. Then that same government taxed him on it, told him that he still has to pay taxes for it even though he gave it all to the 2 military branches of the USA government.
It is really too bad Louis did not have someone tell him about these kinds of things, to hold back money he makes to pay taxes. That is what all people should do who earn money that is not already taxed. Most people are taxed right away for much of what they will have to pay. It is taken from their employment checks. Some even get money back from the government. Sugar Ray Leonard knew this. Many, though, still don't set aside money to pay taxes, and they pay for it more in the end.
@@nycinstyle Thank you for that...as I agree 100%.
HOO-YAH & God Bless
But when Louis was young he was for that time so much a head of the other fighters he fought with his ability and muscles just like ALI beating Liston like saying see the future .
