The very worst beating you’d ever see a counter-puncher absorb. Schmeling’s one hope against Louis was throwing a hard right over Louis’ jab; it worked in the first fight but no rational person would have expected it to work a second time.

My parents had a record (what's that) of old radio moments, (Hindenburg Disaster, The Shadow Knows, Our Miss Brooks, Harry Hershfield and this fight). It is amazing the mind pictures the good radio announcers can paint.
