    Had Toney been stopped 7 times prior to his excursion into the heavyweights?

    What would you say the chances are for C*ckell, of the Marciano fight, against Toney of the Holyfield fight? There are no wrong answers.

    It works like this.

    If you fight a person who has managed to establish a top 10 ranking, they are allowed to fight back, even if you are an all-time great.

    That is why a 9th round destruction of the #2 contender, can be sold as a good result at the time!

    Did Joe Louis land his Sunday punch every minute of every round?

    Some 8th round action, with a tired ****ell eating a ton of hard Marciano head and body shots. HOW DOES HE STAY ON HIS FEET?? :shock: Unreal. No way Tua or Tyson are stopping this version of ****ell. :bart

    Not even if they both hit him at the same time.

    BTW, hard to see either of them surviving that hellish Marciano onslaught either. :ko

    You might want to look back to the fight of the previous weekend!

    Perhaps you should be glad that you are dealing with a 9th round stoppage!

    This is dumb.

    What is the point of this thread? For all of us to post clips with troll-esque commentary attacking great fighters in the cheapest of ways?

    It's a tit for tat race to the bottom.

    Nice to see Marciano and C*ckell getting the respect they deserve.

    Really? Most of these guys are treating ****ell like some kind of joke or something.

    Taking that amount of punishment for 9 is no joke.
