Max Baer's mind as to| who was the greatest fighter he| ever fought. . Joe Louis, thé, chocolate thumper who teed off on Maxie's chin some eight years ago. But it's a bit surprising to learn that Baer doesn't rate Jim Brad- dock, the Irishman who took his title, among the top ten battlers he has met. Baer’s in the army now, an en- listed private at McClellan Field, Calif. Max is an instructor in the physical training division of the Sacremento Air Depot Control Area Command, teaching boxing and wrestling to thousands of sol- diers in California and Nevada. clad mates the othetr day Max was asked to rate his opponents. Louis gave him his worst licking, knock- ing him out in the fourth round in 1935, so. Max didn’t hesitate in naming Joe as No. 1. Max Schmel- ling is"second on Baer’s list, and he considers his defeat of the Ger- man in 1933 as his greatest tri- umph. Continuing with his rating of fighters, Baer put Tommy Lough- in fourth, Ernie Schaaf, fifth, John- ny Risko, sixth, Paolino Uzcudun, Levinsky, ninth, and Tom Heeney, tenth. , Max says “that Nazi, Schmelling” hit him harder than any other man. It was in 1933— “Dempsey always told me that when a man hit me hard I should aim for the middle and wham back.
