Brown Bomber Reaches For Heavyweight Crown After Slashing Back To Ribbi
Detroit’s Joe Louis, aged 21, crushed Max Baer in four rounds before about 90 000 fans at Yankee Stadium, showcasing a deadly one sided performance that underscored Louis ascent toward the heavyweight crown. Baer was knocked down three times, saved by the bell in the third, and stopped on his knee as the round ended. The victory, Louis’s fourth in as many months, positions him for a title shot against Braddock or Schmeling, with promoters planning a spring showdown and a possible New York stadium bout next June. Louis’s honeymoon earnings approach $200 000 as he cements his status as a rising force in boxing.
