Good Christ, this is a hiding.

A couple of things in the couple of minutes it lasts.

1 - The way that Louis scarpes Levinsky off himself like a cheap suit when King tries to clinch

2 - Levinksy was never going to last, was he? Trying to control the range with small moves against a puncher like Joe was always going to end in tears

3 - Louis doesn't give a shit for his opponent. See the way he takes after Levinsky after the last two KO's? Hellish.

for anyone interested in what levinsky was saying while sitting on the ropes it was "dont let him hit me again! dont let him hit me again!"

That's actually a terrible shame, he's pretty game in fairness.

Then why didn't he just stay down?

that's an ass-whuppin', classic stalker Joe. Were any of his earlier opponents- outside of Schmeling- NOT scared to death of him? In his own way, he was every bit as intimidating as Liston or Tyson.

Perhaps even a little bit more.

In Louis's case the staredown was not a mask to intimidate his opponents.

It was real.

It articulated what was actualy going through his mind when he was planing to destroy an oponent, as coldly as a hunter preparing to shoot a deer.

Louis wasnt all smiles and aple pie. He had an almost psychopathic capacity for cruelty in the ring.

Louis was a puncher and a cold killer in the ring, a fighting machine..who had every perfect punch in his arsenal...it was like being in the ring with a tiger....there was only one way out of the ring....On your back

I agree. The fact is that we have no idea if Liston or Tyson is as literally terrifying as Louis because we have no idea how they would behave in this set of circumstances. They just wouldn't be allowed to continue the attack. If you compare it to Jones on Brandon or Williams on Jack - both guys look to the referee in disbelief before commiting to the attack upon the helpless opponent.

Louis never looks the road he's on. When the referee gives the sign that Louis is free to attack the helpless, terrified Levinskey, Louis lines up the most hurtful punches that he can and throws them as hard as he can. He never looks to the referee for confirmation or justification.

The man played by different rules than the rest of us.

This is quality. I nearly made it my new avatar but I always have such excellent avatars I thought I would leave it for someone else.
