    The "Stupidity" on this site is only match by the "stupidity" in Washington D.C. Most here are totally clueless when it comes to boxing history! Remember....boxing did not start with Mike Tyson...This is the the site where some moron said "Could Mike Tyson beat a lion?"...Amazing!!!

    Briedis is tough enough and skilled enough to go a number of rounds with Marciano. Problem is: he is just going to sustain more damage that way. Marciano by late KO.

    at open weight or does briedis have to come in at 200lbs? Briedis is a small cruiser who only walks at around 208-209 but that weight cut could mean a significant difference regardless

    Briedis breaks a light sweat in finishing the lil' Son of Abruzzo in 6.

    Levels.

    Good fight!! Man… hard to pick actually! I think Prime Briedis is very underrated! Tough as nails, hits hard, and has elite boxing ability. Marciano was… well… One of the toughest fighters in the history of the sport with power and relentless engine that could wear down ANYONE.

    I’m actually going to go with prime Briedis in this one by a MD win. Think he actually has to get up off the canvas once or twice and box his way to a HARD fought decision win. This could easily turn into a legendary trilogy between these two.

    Rock wins the rematch :D
