Kalan would be proud of Joshua this time. He was high on this guy until he got knocked out and reality sunk in.

You know Joshua got obliterated by a fat guy half an inch taller than Louis, right?

Joe Louis is too small for today's heavyweights. Plus, these heavyweights now are much more skilled than Abe Simon, Buddy Baer and Primo Carnera.

I just can't picture, (again), Anthony Joshua being dropped by Two Ton Tony Galento.

Me thinks you and Kalan are the same person.

No, I am not. He was high on Anthony Joshua like if Joshua was something never seen before. As someone with his weight, size, strength, reach, conditioning and nutrition would be reigning for years.

And look what happened? He got destroyed by a 6'2", 268lbs heavyweight in Andy Ruiz. Basically, a fat buff!

My question is, where is Kalan now? What does he think of his future hero, Anthony Joshua now?

I know that it takes more than height, reach, weight and nutrition to be great. There's something else called grit, heart and determination. No matter how skilled or talented you are, if you don't got that, then, you are not going to be a great fighter. Ask Big John Tate.

1.Joe Louis had "primitive" skills.
2.Since Ruiz, is a grossly overweight modern fight, he is automatically" talented". (as opposed to Carnera, Simon, and Buddy Baer whose careers elmer has studied quite closely.)
3. If you get knocked down several times and stopped by a fat slob weighing 268, it is not as bad as getting knocked down and coming back to win against a fat slob weighing 233.
4. None of the fights that Joe Louis was knocked down should ever be considered.
5. We should always trust elmers imagination. If he can't imagine it, it cannot happen.
Since, Louis got knocked down by Galento, Louis can't possibly be good enough to beat Joshua.

This reasoning is full proof. Louis got knocked down by Galento. Galento fought Max Baer and could not knock Baer down and was defeated. Baer was bigger than Louis. So obviously, Louis would have no chance against Max Baer if they ever fought.....

I don't really rate the heavyweights of Louis era and I think they would lose to the light heavyweights super middleweights of subsequent eras

Louis heavyweight opponents probably wouldn't enjoy the success they did in subsequent heavyweight eras and most would be fighting in other divisions.
