    Great fighter, crisp technique with knockout power. Pity that his finances weren't managed properly and he ended up being a greeter in Vegas

      True, he was totally f'ed over. I wouldn't put down his greeter job, though. Imagine having a job where people come from miles around just to meet you because you are special to them. Better than factory work.

    I love Joe Louis and so many people have told me I look and box like him which makes me feel so good. By the way it's spelled Louis Not Lewis.

    This part of Joe’s story was an absolute disaster based on how anti-Americanly a true American legend like Joe had been treated.

    Ignorant interviewer ' you still seem like youve got a lot of fighting spirit' what??!!
    Joe was always a polite kind southern gentleman..thats why he was and is so loved. Even beneath his 1970s fashion hes still that bashful shy 1930s gentleman

      No that was a valid question. Because every fighter after he retires still has that fighting spirit left in him
