    1948 Ezzard Charles would be a tough out but I favor Marciano

    Or because him being a "boxing coach" is just a cool story...

    I don't have a comfortable favorite, but I can entertain Charles and Langford chances. Dempsey is another close one. I'd like to see Fitzsimmons and younger Moore vs Rocky as well.

    Charles almost did pull it off when he knocked Marciano's nose off.

    He's a blowhard and a liar. Apparently his students are all hall of Fame worthy elites, but won't say who he trained.
