On a scale of 0-10 what chance do you give Rocky Marciano defeating Tyson Fury

If 2 is a 20% chance of winning, 10% is a razor thin puncher's chance, and the other 10% is Rocky winning by default because Fury argues with his promoter and doesn't enter the ring. Within that 10% puncher's chance, it would be on the condition Fury is back on the coke and beer diet and out of shape. Rocky has 0% chance of beating a focused and sharp Fury who doesn't make some excuse to not fight.

 

5.

It is hard to say how he would handle someone billed as a foot taller, but then again, if Marciano does his low bend, would Fury really have an easy time getting to him from that height?

And of course, Marciano could throw a hundred punches in around. We have seen fights where Fury does like 16.

I would say it is just a complete X factor.

 

@JohnThomas1 you’re lucky you’re an excellent debater

 

Usually, Rocky has some chance against almost everybody because of his stamina, constant pressure and right hand, but Fury proved no power punch can stop him. So probably 4.

 

Just imagine a cruiser like Usyk, but with BEEEEEEEG powa!!!!!

 

Rocky had power and heart but so much physical disadvantage here, idk I really can't see him beating Fury.
He'd give it a go obviously but hed probably get busted up.

 

Raw power versus power and size...

 

Fury would point out how Marciano was a middleweight and how he'd destroy him without a problem because no man born of a mother can defeat Tyson Fury. Then he'd fight Dick the Bruiser in a boxing only match at the local park, instead.

 

Marciano wasn't Dempsey ,not as quick of hand or foot ,nor as accurate, or elusive.
Marciano would not have gotten Willard out of there in 3 rounds,imo.

 

Walcott quit ,his cornermen said he froze in the dressing room.
Have you forgotten he went 13 rds with Marciano in their first fight, floored him and was in front going into the 13th round, or that he was 38 years old?
Rex Layne? Dereck Chisora would beat Layne up!

If Fury can survive Wilders right hand Rocky's won't be a problem.
At distance it's one way traffic, in close Fury would manhandle Rocky .
Marciano was dwarfed by Ali ,against Fury ,he would look like a child.

 

Marciano needed 9 rounds to get Cockell out of there.
Eleven rounds to stop Lastarza and both were on their feet when the fights was stopped.
Marciano was a grinder.
Fury is not only huge ,he can box and punch.
Rocky would have his work cut out with a prime Dillian Whyte.
Fury has11 inches of height,17 inches of reach,and about 80 pounds of weight,over Marciano.
It's too much, Marciano would be favourite over almost anyone under 200lbs,[Dempsey and Langford would be tough fights.] Against a giant who isnt a big dub like Carnera ,he goes out on his shield,bravely but hopelessly.imo

 

Usyk beats Marciano. His footspeed would mean he would not be there too take a prolonged bombardment,and he would match Rocky for conditioning.
Rocky would not gradually wear him down,trap him on the ropes and apply the finisher.
Usyk is way too smart for that,if he got caught he would be on his bike till he recovered.

Rocky outworked older men,and fighters with average foot speed ,he wouldn't be able to dominate the Ukrainian , and his facial tissue would not stand up to those quick counters.

Five inches of height,ten inches of reach,40plus pounds of muscle,and Usyk is a south paw!

 

Rocky would find a way, Mac

 

Marciano won his fights by work rate and constant pressure.
Fury had other options.
