Joe Louis Loses Edge in Brion Bout at Chicago Stadium
Joe Louis, 36, weighed 216 pounds, and despite a furious late rally, scores a methodical 10th round decision over Cesar Brion before a lean Chicago crowd. Louis admits doubts about a comeback and dismisses talk of Charles rematch, noting fading power and a missing combination. Brion, 26, weighed 196, showed no fear, landing solid blows and swelling Louis’s left eye. The bout ends with Louis a shadow of his past greatness and public fondness intact but tempered by decline.
