Joe Louis’ Killer Instincts
Gladiators like Jack Dempsey were fiery and savage, but Joe Louis was a calm, cold-blooded assassin–perhaps the greatest finisher in the sport’s history.
If “The Brown Bomber” had his adversary hurt, they were doomed. No one had better killer instincts than Louis.
Seeing his opponent visibly weaken, he would follow-up with a powerful flurry that was pinpoint accurate and deadly.
Louis was dangerous at any point of the fight and his superior technique allowed him to always be in a position to land that knockout punch or pounce on his opponents for the kill better than anyone ever has before or since.
