    This is a terrible matchup Wlad dwarfs Marciano on size.

    Marciano Tkos Wlad mid-to-late imo. I don't think Wlad has the chin to deal with a prime Marciano's onslaught for the whole fight.

    Yes. Because that's what every fight comes down to. Chin.

    Yea, it's all about chin and once you've been checked you'll always get checked.

    You know the bum Henry Armstrong.

    He got KO'd by a guy with a 10% KO ratio, and no not at the very end of his career but at the very beginning.
    Once a glass jaw always a glass jaw.

    Because a guy who gets floored by lightheavies has an ATG heavyweight chin. Well played.

    How is this thread 122 pages long, whats the debate here? Rocky was a short fat light man who would get totally destroyed within 3 rounds by Wladimir, no question.

    Floored or a flash knock down against an ATG?
    Wlad knows more about getting floored more than anybody , ask Panell, who?.... who spun him 180 degrees onto his hands and knees.
    Wlad would be to afraid to drop Rock for fear of what would be administered to him in return.
    After all, a walking stump with zero skill and who struggled with a old middleweight Toney had Wlad in the red zone over 12 rounds.
    But he'll take care of Marciano in 3?? GTFO

    "Rocky was short and fat"

    "Wlad is a slow, glass chinned robot".

    "Rocky could punch with the force of an armour-piercing bullet"

    What is this? Dungeons and Dragons: Fistic Edition?

    So much hyperbole and assumption from people who either know nothing of one side, or know nothing of either.

    At least it's fun to read in the same way that watching people fall off skateboards is.

    Yea this guy was a hell of a light heavy....take the version of the Marciano fight and see how many he would upset in the last 5 decades

    True, its crazy how many of these opinions are so one-sided....this would not be an easy fight for either man and tests would take place that bring out another level but its fun to read
