Poor Joe was soooooo relieved that the fight was stopped. Fighters have never shown much intelligence.

Lewis at 39yrs old. That was considered ancient in sport martial arts. Saw Lewis a few months before he passed away. RIP Master Lewis.

Sonny Liston was only 34 (born in 1930) when he lost the title to Ali (then Clay) in 1964. Liston died at age 40 in 1970-although Liston’s exact birthdate is unknown. In fact, Liston said he was born in 1932 (no official records exist) which would have made him only 32 when he fought Ali in 1964. However, it is generally agreed that he was likely born July 1930.

Joe Lewis et extrêmement puissant des poings mais ses jambes sont très moyenne (il a jamais était bon) il compense par une agressivité extrême et tactiquement c'est très basique il aurait pu faire un excellent boxeur en boxe anglaise mais comme beaucoup de guerrier ils aiment le combat même à faire les combats de trop RIP à lui

Are there any more videos of Kerry Roop or Brad Hefton anywhere? I fought once in the ring, kickboxing like these two guys. It was quite an experience. The judges said I lost, but I was still standing at the end of the bout. I'd like to see more fights like this one.

I was glad to see Roop get beat for beating fighting great Joe Lewis only cause Lewis was on in age which takes its toll no matter how good you are.I do have to give Roop props for taking all that punishment and keep going.

I watched this when it first aired. It was sad to see. You could tell the commentators were pulling for Lewis to win. Joe Lewis was and is a legend but like so many great fighters he stayed in the game too long.

Actually no. He stayed very little. He made a come back at 39, and has no more than 20 full contact fights in total. He was good but over rated anyway.

Roop didn't beat Lewis, age beat Lewis. Age eventually beats us all. Had Lewis been even ten years younger, Roop wouldn't have lasted two rounds with him.

I agree.Joe admitted he didnt train for this bout,& the age factor probably convinced him to scale back& do exhibitions& such.just ask Sugar Ray Leonard,you gotta know when to scale back& risk danger to your well being.

I think had they let the fight continue, Lewis might have pulled through and won with his legendary toughness and harrowing hooks. But you have to give credit to Roop, he fought the fight he needed to and kept up the pressure without sacrificing technique unduly.

RIP Laroy Hopkins. Shot and killed in Baltimore over 20 years ago. He volunteered his time to helping kids stay clear of drugs and other bad influences. He was a true local activist involved in trying to make Baltimore a better place to live. 😢 www.baltimoresun.com/news/bs-xpm-1996-02-08-1996039036-story,amp.html

Brain cancer has nothing to do with fighting. Joe was hardly beaten in his career. He didn´t take so much hits against the head.

rope guy is a lot younger, you can see he is more lighter on his feet. but Joe is older and has been doing this stuff since the probably late 50's or 60's, of course he will not be as the younger guys are, common sense. see mcgregor when he is 40 in the ufc against the younger men will be a laugh. Still even if Joe lost he still my favorite, I just like his tuffness and him.

kerry do your elbows hurt now in your old age ? mine do from sparing with brad we used 26 oz gloves and when i would be trying my hardest to hit brad or ricky hanes id often miss my target and the weight of the 16 oz glove would over extend my elbow and now i cant even straighten my arm to full capacity or extension would be a better use of words
