Rocky was known to have seriously kinky activities post fighting career. If he could avoid staring at Corbetts white cheeks under those thongs he could easily go 49-0.
49-0. Prime James J. Corbett's style was tailor made to order for Prime Rocky Marciano, and, on top of that, Rocky was a level above James J.
Why stop at 49? Make it 100 Corbetts. Fully rejuvenated each and every time out - including the ones that might’ve been killed in any of the given matches. Rocky: 100 - 0. 100 KOs.
MeI hope you’re not talking about Corbett’s g-string attire. Rocky will most certainly expose Corbett but I wouldn’t want to see him take it that far. I can flex with some elbows and head butts from the Rock, but if he “pulls it off”, that’s an instant DQ in my book.
Yes. Fitzsimmons wasn't as good a boxer as Corbett. But Fitzsimmons would do much better in all these modern hypotheticals because his power is something tangible that would translate against a modern opponent. Corbett being a somewhat better boxer than Fitzy or anyone else from his era isn't going to help him against Rocky Marciano.
