James J. Braddock argues age is not decisive in the looming clash with Max Schmeling. He notes Schmeling’s age 26 versus Braddock’s 30, stressing conditioning and form over numbers, and says Louis’s youth should not sway expectations. Braddock contends Louis remains skilled but fallible to a well-conditioned, box-to-trade opponent.
