    We can pull out the footage of the second Sharkey fight if you want!

    Yes he did, and if size and technique are enough to beat Marciano, then he should not be left out!

    There were bigger fighters than Fury in the division at the time, and they weren’t getting close to the champion!

    Tyson Fury is to big for Marciano. Just like the 254 pounder Humphrey Jackson was to big for The Rock. He decimated him from start to finish. Oh wait...

    Are people going to act like the only thing Fury has is size? He is skilled and very loose. He is a natural boxer, he moves, jabs and out boxes guys nicely. Follow a new sport if you cant see it.

    Chisora is a complete nothing. Marciano one of the greatest hwts to ever live. Rocky Kos Fury in 10 rounds.

    Fury. Too big, he knows how to use it. Just too much to overcome.

    Fury is a 250 pound hwt with amateur talent. If you can't see this find another sport to follow.

    I'm not a Fury fan but his hand-speed is comparable to Marciano's ,maybe faster.

    Too much size difference..

    I'm confused because Rocky Never Fight Tall Big Boxer..

    But, if fury went toe to toe he is in big problem..
    he must Outbox Rocky..

    For me Furry on points
    or Rocky by ko/stoppage

    anyone agree?

    I love Rocky & he is p4p better fighter but seems fury on point are the scenario with boring fight..
    because Rocky need I punch KO to win or Body attack Stoppage..

    There is no question Rock is the better pound for pound fighter......but really? Marciano is not even a big cruiserweight, he should not beat Fury.
