    I think both you and @Glass City Cobra have really interesting and valid points. It's true, Chuvalo didn't use the right, and the right was an Achilles' Heel for George.

    It is funny when you listen people saying nonsenses type " marciano was better than Frazier because Ali said so" "Ali said that marciano would beat Foreman so it is a fact"
    With all my respect for my hero Ali.
    Ali could say **** and it means nothing. Ali was a great boxer but his opinion is exactly equal to yours and mine.

    MUHAMMAD ALI PICKED KEN NORTON AND JOE FRAZIER TO BEAT GEORGE FOREMAN SO IF YOUR ARGUMENT IS BASED ON ALI SAID . ... SORRY BUT MY ANSWER IS LOL

    In fact Joe Frazier was better than Marciano, bigger faster and stronger and did hit just as hard

    I agree that it's a bad matchup for Marciano. He was awkward and tougher to figure out than Frazier, so I think he'd stay on his feet more time than Joe. Still, to me it's a matter of time before George KOs him.

    I'd give Rocky much more chance against post-Ali Foreman, who wasn't agressive enough and fought dumb.

    Either Foreman buries Rocky in the canvas, or the referee rescues him.No disgrace.

    Nobody's crying. My comment was in reference to the poster's reputation. Now **** off. I've yet to see you make one useful contribution to this site.

    Marciano by 1st rd. KO......... In his dreams,
    But in reality if they fought The "Rock" would
    Be shattered into a million small pieces.
