Your personal opinion on the popularity of the fight has nothing to do with anything.
He ducked out of the fight and theres even a quote from Steward to prove it.
You're attempting to rewrite history in your defence.
Poor showing pencil top.

This isn't about personal opinion it's an incident that only happened a matter of months ago, dig up the threads from that time and see what the consensus was then.

I have nothing to defend, I wanted chisora to pull the upset but I preferred the haye fight to get done. Chisora got the easier option anyways for the same money.

I have no idea what you mean by pencil top, not something I've ever been called before.

Didn't Chisora get handled by Tyson Fury?

Didn't really get handled. It was a pretty competitive fight with Fury rocked at one point.

It was a joke of an opponent for Wlad at that stage, however (pre-Haye).

Marciano wins by virtue of the fight being discussed.

Which narrows the divide more: Marciano artificially bulking up to over 200lbs to fight Wlad on his home turf, or Wlad coming into Marciano's backyard without the benefits of modern supplementation and a relatively scrawny 220lbs?

Wlad cannot beat Rock without any inside game and combination punching.
A 1-2 will not overcome a 4-5.
Rocky by knock out in the 4th.
End of debate. Thread closed.

Marciano's ankle attack could prove effective.

Still, I'll Wlad in 2 or 3.
