(PRIME) Rocky Marciano vs (PRIME) Tyson Fury

Fury has too good of movement, can nullify RM's strengths, keep RM on the outside and tie him up if he gets too close. RM's legs would be gone by the 6th. KO'd inside of 9.
Marciano:
Height- 5ft 8in
Weight- 188 pounds
Reach- 68 in.

Fury;
Height-6ft 9in
Weight- 250+ pounds
Reach- 85in
Fury is just to big for Marciano. Throw in great movement. RM loses 10 out of 10.

 

Mismatch

 

Nice joke

 

Fury would outbox him from the other side of the ring

 

Someone like Carl Froch beats Marciano so what do you think Fury does to him?

 

Do you know that Carl Froch knocked out George Groves in front of 80,000 people at Wembley Stadium ?

 

Marciano could win .....Cunningham wasn,t bigger than Rocky and he almost knocked him( Fury ) out

Bit different regarding attributes though, Cunningham was 6'3 with an 82 inch reach. Marciano was 5'10 with a 67 inch reach massive difference.

Also Marciano was 180s pounds on average, it would be a mismatch for him to fight the modern day Super Heavyweights.

 

Even though Rocky is one of my very favorites, such a fight is a mismatch - not only because he's shorter, ok, many heavies are shorter than Fury, but he's also lighter. So maybe he's losing on points, but still I give him a big chance to turn Fury into a starfighter, just because he's uniquely capable of doing this to everyone.

 

Those guys back in the day were really though, their stamina was even better than it is now i think, also Marciano did ko some guys who were 6 feet 3 , or even bigger

 

Your talking about 70-80 pound weight difference, 11 inch height difference, and finally 14 inch reach difference. Forget nostalgia it's a mismatch and I'm not even fan of Fury. It would literally look like Ivan Drago vs Rocky Balboa, except this isn't the movies and Marciano wouldn't win.

 

Wow really that's news to me I wonder why you never hear about it

 

A prime Rocky Marciano would probably be fighting at light heavyweight in 2023.
