    "Rocky could throw 80+ punches a round and do that for 15 rounds"
    Is that your post?

    No he couldn't and he never did!

    It's you who is being disingenuous,wriggling like an eel!

    Did I say he threw 1400 punches in any particular fight?
    I already admitted to being overly charitable in a previous comment. The fact is there were numerous rounds where he did throw that many punches

    Hey GlassCity... How does it feel to be blind and have amnesia simultaneously? Must be tough.

    The Savold fight was shameful,after ancient Joe Louis had butchered Savold and Rocky had retired Louis ,Squire Bill Daly, Savold's manager put him in with Rocky.Daly was a flesh pedlar devoid of conscience and he was as bent as a banana his earlier meal ticket Oma took a dive against Woodcock.

    How does it feel to be stupid...? I'm sure those SSI checks come in handy when you're too mentally unfit to work.

    Still waiting for those Tyson clips you poor, neglected child.

    He’s going to have a longer nap than Walcott did when Tyson hits him.

    He threw a hundred punches in Rd. 15 of the Ezzard Charles fight.

    115 in Rd. 8 of the Cockell fight.

    In the film of the Archie Moore fight in which parts of rounds are missing you can count up to 690 punches thrown by him alone.

    I counted 85, and about half of them missed.

    Marciano taking a loss exists strictly in the world of fantasy.

    Your insults are third rate juvenalia.

    We've established three things:

    1. You don't know what you're looking at: you posted a clip of Marciano 'stumbling over his feet' even though he clearly shuffled nto a southpaw stance and back into orthodox in the clip. A move that while not pretty, kept him out of the line of fire.

    2. You have amnesia: we started by talking about Marciano's timing (which I said was equal, not better) compared to Tyson's and you changed gears to talk about Marciano stumbling over. Now you're accusing me of saying that Marciano had better accuracy even though I had already assented to Tyson being the superior marksman. You seem to have trouble reading and keeping track of the conversation. Did you graduate HS? Do you need to revisit elementary grammar?

    3. You are blind: you asked me to provide you with a clip of Tyson stumbling over (a claim that I didn't even make) for whatever reason. I posted a video of Tyson's fight with Bonecrusher and included a timestamp of when Tyson falls over throwing a punch, but you're still acting as though I didn't respond even though it's on the thread for everyone to see. You. Are. A. Joke.

    Stop embarassing yourself bro. Its painful at this point.

    Nothing can make me believe that someone of that build can ever beat Tyson.............That's simply not the frame that Tyson loses to
