    If you foul and don't get caught, it could very well change the tide of battle!

    Are you for real?
    Christ on a bike.

    When have you EVER been level headed regarding either Liston or Foreman?
    How many people have tripped you up on it and accused you of having an agenda?
    You, Rockyjim & Bummy badmouth both of them in a futile attempt to raise Marciano's stock and at the same time elevate most of Rockys opponents to mythical levels.

    Nobody tripped me up. I’d like to know when that was. I always state the reasoning behind my opinion and I am happy for anyone to disagree. Why does it hurt you so bad that I am not in line with you?

    If Somebody has an opinion against you then your cry is always “let’s attack them”. I’m not attacking posters for their point of view.

    He's been in with an all time great puncher twice, but he destroyed him both times!

    No I’ll explain to you slowly, point by point.
    1. Liston was old
    2. Looking at his skills at this time aren’t fair.
    3. To illustrate this, he gave Ali as an example, giving a time when it clearly wasn’t fair to judge him.

    Do you understand now?

    Rocky.
    The cross eyed midget, slow of hand and foot.
    Could hardly screw in a light bulb.
    Fat snack hungry pig.
    But boy did he have courage.

    I think people on here hate rocky so much for some odd reasons that can’t possibly have anything to do with boxing. If you’re a fan of the sport you have to appreciate him. Like I appreciate Ali Louis Liston Foreman Frazier Tyson just as much as Marciano but don’t need to make cases for them because people aren’t half as disrespectful towards those men and their careers. Imagine if any of them finished undefeated with the highest KO percentage you’d think they were all fat midget losers huh? Not a damn word of complaint from people that the average age of fighters (champions) has gone up over the years and the average Marciano opponent was like 5 years younger then the average AJ. But Marciano only fought old bums right? Hypocrites.
