This would of been a sad display of 2 former greats.
I'm not confident but I think Louis would of won by a split decision at the stated dates.
But no way I'd put money on it

The late Louis looked like a declined athlete, the late Ali looked like a disabled in the ring.

I think at that stage of these legends' careers that the great Joe Louis had a little more fight in him than the great Muhammad Ali.

Ali wasn't a fighter then. He was a liability at best.
