    Rocky (of course)
    Larry Holmes
    Muhammad Ali
    Joe Louis
    Lennox Lewis
    Joe Frazier
    Mike Tyson
    Tyson Fury
    Deontay Wilder
    George Foreman
    Evander Holyfield
    Wlad Klitschko
    Vitali Klitschko
    Sonny Liston

    A handful. I think a better question is who is the worst fighter that could do it?

    I'd favor another 10 Heavyweights to do it at their peak. But truthfully if they went through the same situation as Marciano and were demanded the same commitment as him most probably wouldn't. The only one I'd favor to go undefeated is Foreman, Frazier, and maaaaaaaaybe Louis

    Everyone else has too many lapses in motivation and training, or simply doesn't have the h2h ability to take a beast like prime Walcott.

    I changed that 8 year time frame in the beginning post to "inside 8 years or less", if someone sees another boxer taking the chance of fighting more frequently, like Foreman for example.
    Oh and of course exchanging Rocky, so no superhuman opponent here.

    I would start with Larry Donald and work my way up the ranks, but that would take quite awhile.
