    The guy I think of when thinking about Marciano is Calzaghe. They're not the same, of course (Marciano more power and Calzaghe more speed) but they were similar in a few ways:

    - Super conditioning
    - Constant offense/workrate
    - Walk right into danger with no fear (because of their great chins)

    Both fighters swarmed opponents. They just ground you down.

    And neither guy, despite their constant offense, clinched much. They didn't need to.

    Check yourself BROHOLIC. Rocky's heart was NEVER taken. That's just blasphemy and you need to get on your knees and ask for forgiveness.

    Marciano was a real brawler who had power in both hands. Ward can't survive the KO.

    Walcott was ahead in that first fight and would have won it if he had kept his distance properly.

    Anyone who chooses Ward (one of my very favourite fighters of this era) in THIS matchup needs to quit watching this sport. Absolute tossers.

    The D.A.' s office would file murder charges even before the fight charging Marciano.
