Former heavyweight champ Joe Louis talks with newsmen in his dressing room after he was knocked out by Rocky Marciano, unbeaten heavyweight from Brockton, Mass., in eighth round of their scheduled 10-rounder in New York's Madison Square Garden Oct .26, 1951. Joe had just suffered the third loss in his 71-bout career. An old man of the ring at 37 1/2 years, Louis was stretched out on his back on the apron of the ring in a sad finish to his 17-year boxing career. He said he'd make a decision in the next few days about his fighting future. (AP Photo)
