    Marciano runs over Foster and i cant see much debate

    Quick request, after the flame war in this thread is over, can we take like a week off from Marciano threads? Like a whole 7 days without a Marciano thread being on front page. k thx

    A legit Marciano thread would even be a refreshing change up from time to time. But my guess is that can’t be accomplished in this forum.

    Rocky ends a largely on sided fight in less than 5 in this particular case

    Rocky takes him out in 4 by vicious hook.

    Why is this? Are there any OTT Marciano lovers on this site? I'm at a loss.

    I'm thinking Bob goes after Marciano like he did Frazier and mixes a bit- Marciano KO in 1-2 rds - Foster could not last with that kind of power- could be like the Matthews double hook or the Marciano right hand - Foster could not move vs Frazier & that really was not his style- He goes in & gets KO'd

    I don't think this would be competitive. But I can honestly see Foster getting a KD at best.

    Then Marciano gets up and mauls him brutally

    I say we make this a regular thing. A Marciano week each year where all talk of the heavyweight usual suspects is banned
