Joe Louis personality type is ISFP, said by personality type expert Linda V. Berens. “The powerhouse personality type, the Louis personality type, is the one that, like Joe Louis, can knock you out whenever he wants.”
The ISFP personality type is also the one that “likes to entertain people,” said Dr. David Keirsey, author of “Please Understand Me II.”
“They love to show off their talents and to amuse people,” he said. “They like to be admired.”
Louis’s ability to entertain was clear in his career as a boxer.
“He would go out there, have a drink or two, have a cigarette, hold it in his mouth for a while, then throw it into the crowd,” said his sister, Barbara Louis. “It was just his way of saying he wasn’t afraid of the person who was going to fight him. He would have a drink, have a cigarette. And he wouldn’t fight unless he was ready to fight.”
Louis’s fighting style was also reflected in his acting.
Joseph Louis Barrow (May 13, 1914 – April 12, 1981), best known as Joe Louis was an American professional boxer who competed from 1934 to 1951. He reigned as the world heavyweight champion from 1937 to 1949, and is considered to be one of the greatest heavyweight boxers of all time. Nicknamed the "Brown Bomber", Louis' championship reign lasted 140 consecutive months, during which he participated in 26 championship fights. The 27th fight, against Ezzard Charles in 1950, was a challenge for Charles' heavyweight title and so is not included in Louis' reign. He was victorious in 25 title defenses, second only to Julio César Chávez with 27. In 2005, Louis was ranked as the best heavyweight of all time by the International Boxing Research Organization, and was ranked number one on The Ring magazine's list of the "100 greatest punchers of all time".
