Is this some kind of joke? Rocky would crush Wlad and it wouldn't even be close. Rockys is at another level to Wlad and his robotic plodding style. Rocky would duck and weave his way inside and smash Wlads body, arms and face with pulverizing shots relentlessly for 12 or 15 or however many rounds you choose.
Wlad is a coward and would not be able to handle the pressure of a prime, undefeated Marciano. Wlad wouldnt know what hit him and would end up being a laughing stock in this one sided contest. Rocky enjoyed fighting bigger guys and would inflict some serious damage on Wlad and make him whimper and crumple in a heap. |

2)wlad is not a coward. this comment makes no sense 3)what bigger guys did rocky beat that compare to wlad in any way shape or form? don ****ell (205), lee savold (200) or the monstrous rex layne (193)? they were bigger than marciano but 40-50 pounds lighter than wlad he fought exactly two men above 220 pounds-Bill Wilson and Johnny Shkor (yes i'm a boxrec warrior, i needed to check). How do Bill Wilson and Shkor measure up to wlad? how do fighting these men, who were nowhere near wlad's size or ability to use it, prepare rocky for a powerful, athletic and technically gifted klitschko? |

Rocky low crouch makes it tough for any very tall fighter especially walking statues to hit him consistently. As Wlad bends lower to better hit rocky he exposes his glass chin and once hit he exposes his lack of courage. One on the button right hand from Rocky ends the fight.

With a low crouch he won't be able to hit Wlad with anything unless he's right under him. And being under Wlad is not smart unless you like carrying an extra 1.5 times your bodyweight while you got back problems. |

I am waiting for the next 5 foot 10 inch heavyweight with a sub 70 inch reach who even gets ranked in the top 20 by the most spurious of sanctioning bodies.
Oh, but I suppose Marciano was a once in a species athletic freak. |

i like the rock. tough bastard, great punch, outstanding stamina. never in his career did he demonstrate the ability to destroy a 250 pound, athletic master ring general who had a MUCH better jab and hit just as hard. |

i just can't see how rocky, who was ok at slipping a jab but not great, is going to get past wlad's MASSIVE reach advantage and one of the modern eras best jabs? i just can't see how rocky's ****ing t-rex arms are getting anywhere near a fighter so much taller,with significantly better footwork? yes, rocky fought out of a good crouch and was tenacious. that crouch would mean the wlad has to aim lower while pummelling him and that tenacity means he takes a far longer beating than he should. that's it |

We can speculate but I always like to see how a fighter finishes his career before I judge, some get better with age and experience and others provide us with insight to weaknesses they always had and are magnified or exposed with age. As far as matching era's its a hard thing because we either move one man backwards or the other forward but we do not have time machines that can adjust for head to heads. As for me i judge a fighter by the era and a great fighter in his era is a great fighter. As for the new batch of heavyweights more of them are 6"7, 6'9, 6'8 and north of 240lba, I dont know if makes their chins stronger of makes them better but it may be time to call them Super Heavyweights and create a heavyweight division with a 220-230 Maximum and then let the champs fight if it has public interest.
Even an old conservative boxing man like myself see the need for change because some of the big men are getting better and there is an over 6'3 235lb weight class Let the chips fall where they may |

Seamus you keep coming back here without fail talking shit , so the retard is clearly you.
You should of thought that remark over before you posted it. One huge factor i forgot to mention is - if he couldn't knok out David Haye who fights the same height, how the **** does he knock out the Rock. |

It provides me cheap entertainment. And, yes, David Haye fights at the same height (and more importantly the same distance) as Marciano. Can I have more of your profoundly incorrect observations? |
