If Marciano and Walcott fought 10 times ?

Walcott was doing as well as he'd ever do, and then Marciano took him out with a shot that he had saw an opening for and was just waiting for an opportunity to capitalize on it. There were another two rounds where Marciano would possibly have that same opening, after that.

That said, 7/10 go to Marciano. If Walcott did NO ****ing around, I can see him taking a decision. Not sure if I like his chances of a KO, even though I think he could definitely hurt Marciano

 

I'm not sure how much it'd change.

I'm confident Walcott outboxes him, I'm just not sure if he can keep it up the entire way. Marciano did spot that little opening and put a huge punch in it. He wasn't just throwing punches until one worked.

I gotta stick with 7/10 Marciano. Although I suppose that that particular counter-punch might not always knock Walcott the **** out, and Walcott might get up, recover and wise up, then stay the hell away from the riskier parts of his arsenal. But does that make it 5/10? 4/10?

It's tricky, man!

 

Rocky knocks him out 10 times. He already done it twice now

 

...they would be two very f****d up men!

 

Marciano never lost, beat Walcott 2 times out of 2 by KO, most Walcott could've hoped for when they fought was a Draw. Even if Marciano didn't stop Walcott in the 13th he probably would've in the 14th or especially 15th, Walcott by now was doing nothing more than moving away, barely firing back, the Rock probably stops him every time tbh.

 

Walcott could get at most a draw....

 

Walcott wins 3 to 4 times..BElieve that.

 

This!


Seriously, if the two were matched ten times in the shape they arrived for the first bout Walcott might take three or four fights. Walcott got tired and sloppy which can happen when you are old, or getting hit hard... and certainly when both are occurring.

 

In the majority of ten fights,Marciano would come from behind and stop Joe. Walcott was capable of outboxing Marciano but in order to beat him,he'd have to do it for the full fifteen rounds. A very tall order.

 

I'd say Walcott wins at least 4 out of 10 and possibly more... The facts are these.. A past his prime Walcott was EASILY outboxing and hurting Marciano for 13 rounds. He had a wide lead on the cards and had already put Marciano down.. showing he could hurt him enough and keep him honest. Again this was a past his best walcott against a prime Marciano. You give me a Prime Walcott vs. Prime Marciano... I think Walcott does just fine and could even take a slight majority or split.

 

Let's not forget that Joe was a late bloomer,though. In the first Marciano fight he was as good as he ever was.

 

i think each and every fight would be close and competitive. I certainly see Walcott winning his share.
I can't see Rocky winning all of them. There is no evidence to suggest that.

 

Walcott would win 4 or 5, maybe more. He was more skilled. Anybody can get caught with that one big punch and be KO'd. Look what happened to Charles against Walcott in one of their fights. Charles was knocked dead cold but the series itself was very competitive with each man winning 2 fights.

Walcott was dominating the 1st fight till he got caught. It wasn't like Marciano was dominating the entire fight before applying the KO.
