History of Joe Louis Boxing Career
Joseph Louis Barrow born May 13, 1914, better known as Joe Louis, was the world heavyweight boxing champ from 1937 to 1949. He is believed to be the of the greatest heavyweight of all time.
Joe Louis was the most potent and fastest punching heavyweight boxer in ring history. His great hand speed, particularly in combination, was awesome to behold. He had a powerful jab, threw every punch perfectly and with accuracy. His right cross, thrown short and straight, was sheer dynamite. The "Brown Bomber" never ducked anyone as his record 25 title defenses attests to. Of those 25 successful defenses, 21 were won by knockout, 17 of those were ten counts! 5 in the first round! He also knocked out six men who held the Heavyweight Boxing Championship of the World. From 1934 to 1949, when he first retired as Boxing champion, his record was 60-1 with 51 knockouts. He held the Heavyweight Boxing Championship for a record of nearly 12 years.
Louis had the perfect build for a fighter with long, smooth muscles which gave him great speed and reflexes. Though overlaid with racism, one of the top sportswriters of the 30's, Grantland Rice, described Louis as a "brown cobra" and referred to his "blinding speed" as the "speed of the jungle" and the "instinctive speed of the wild . Rice In Mead, Sports Illustrated Sept. 16, 1985 also compared Louis to a "black panther stalking his prey . His speed and power was explosive. Louis was a rare heavyweight who could throw a triple left hook with power as he did against Max Baer. In terms of hand speed, Louis, in his prime, ranks with the best in the division including Muhammad Ali.
