    Well, it would be an absolute war. Marciarno would be game and competitive but I think he would ultimately succumb to Tyson's power.

    IMO if they fought 5 times tyson wins 4 , marciano has a shot at KO'ing anyone but tyson would have to be favourite.

    Tyson never beat any fighter above a C level class. Marciano easily. Hits harder, better chin, smarter.

    what was rocky 186lbs mike was 220ish a lil less mike would stop him in 6 rds or less the size,speed,power, would be to much for rocky i can't think of one thing rocky did better he would have no advantages in that fight other then stamina but its not like mike would get worn down fighting a guy 30pounds lighter.

    Tyson by early knockout. Marciano would come at him and be demolished.

    Tyson was already proven to be confident when things go his way and fold when not.

    It's not just about stamina. But willpower as well.

    The difference in fighting mentality is the key. Marciano usually find ways to win. This was evident with the Walcott and Moore fights.

    tyson capitulates under marciano's will. tyson does have the better skillset, but marciano would come forward all night taking 3 or 4 punches just to land one. tyson has a bad habit of crumbling against elite competition, especially when they can take his shots. i can see marciano stopping him while behind on points. just my opinion though.

    Would be a pretty good scrap. Marciano doesn't know how to lose and Tyson is monster. I'd take Tyson, but Marciano doesn't give up easily.
