Rocky Marciano vs Ed Dunkhorst

Janitors learning to troll! :rofl:rofl

 

Big Ed just too big and powerful for Rocky. A bad big 'un always beats a good little 'un.
Maher and Fitz just got lucky.

 

Fitzimmons kod Ed Dunkhorst in the scond round with a powerful blow to 300 pound tDunkhorst.s midsection,in 1900...Letting all the air out...I suspect Marciano,shorter than Ruby Robert would have kod Dunkhorst also...Class triumps most of the time...

 

It sure does , however the debate has not been Rocky v.s. men taller or heavier as it would include 99% of the heavyweights since 1960. It is Rocky v.s. much larger top ranked heavyweight contenders ...

 

Rocky vs Ned O Baldwin????

Or perhaps a more serious question, Rocky vs Jess Willard and Primo Carnera?

 

You're doing well. :good:happy

 

Willard match up would be heavily influenced by the ref, the distance and the ring size ... I would like Rocky by decision ... too busy for him ...

Rocky would destroy Carnera in about three rounds if the ref did not let Primo hold him non-stop ...

 

..... and yet you'd favour Bruno over Marciano.

Sure, Bruno had a bigger punch than Primo, but he was equally flakey.
Bruno and Carnera are on the same level, both manufactured fighters who had the physiques to attract the crowds and shrewd managers to build up their records.

Seldon, of course, lies a notch below both.

 

Dunkhorst was just a fat man.
I dont think that represents a "physical advantage".

 

To paraphrase Dirty Harry.

" Well, do you feel lucky , Dunk ? "

 

I must admit, as far as troll threads go, this one is very classy, subtle and beautifully understated. :good:happy

 

Show me.
