My god the way Joe Louis walked away after he knocked him down was just incredible. He never even looked back as if to say that motherfucker ain't getting up. The accuracy and the power is just a thing of beauty to watch. The greatest HW that ever lived along with Jack Johnson and Ali.
The power of Joes jab is unreal, just watch the slo mo; equal to Liston in my opinion. A fight between Liston and Louis in their primes would have been great.
"When Joe Louis asked Lena Horne, with whom he was then having a relationship, to keep score for him at a Hollywood golf benefit, the singer refused -- she was entertaining troops that day. Joe hit her with a left hook. Then he started to choke her. In his 1978 autobiography, written with Edna and Art Rust Jr., Louis said that the only thing that saved Lena's life was an aunt in the next room who threatened to call the police."

Much respect to Conn, he played the game-plan needed, almost pulled it off, hell of a heart.
As for Joe, so much mechanics tight, well-oiled, a pretty precise machine.

Billy Conn was already out on his feet before the ref came in.

Billy Conn was distracted by the referee who came in to separate the 2 men but didn't follow through

@PrehistoricTube I agree he was distracted by Joe Louis' fists in his face.
