    Rocky Marciano got his butt whipped by 160-170 pound Ted Lowry. Lowry had a record of 70-68 with 48 knockouts. [url]http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Rocky_Marciano_vs._Ted_Lowry_(1st_meeting)[/url]


    So if Lowry could beat Marciano and almost knocked him out then James Toney would knock Marciano out. Toney by 3rd round knockout.

    Wladimir Klitschko was KOed by 31-20-3 Ross Puritty. [url]http://boxrec.com/media/index.php/Wladimir_Klitschko_vs._Ross_Puritty[/url]

    So if Puritty could KO Klitschko then Dunkhorst would knock Klitschko out.
    Ed Dunkhorst by 3rd round knockout.

    Low-key that was just a way for you to call Bob Fitzsimmons the GOAT though

    The ignore feature is so nice. Now I can't see any of you. But anyway since one tomato can middleweight in Ted Lowry could beat Marciano then I would say guys like Marvin Hagler could beat Marciano as well. So could Roy Jones Jr, Julian Jackson. I would say a guy like Andre Ward would stop Marciano in maybe 5 rounds too. With Julian Jackson, Roy Jones Jr, and Marvin Hagler all stopping Marciano in 3 rounds.

    Toney has a chance against most fighters.

    But the way he was bullied by Tiberi seriously makes me sturggle to envision him beating Rocky, much less by KO.

    We all know Lowry had some success but two of the best LHW fighters in history (Moore and Charles) were stopped by Rocky so I'm not sure this theory about any fighter from 160+ being able to beat Rocky holds true.

    Let me show you how stupid your logic is ... so you are basically saying that Julian Jackson could beat Archie Moore and Ezzard Charles because Rocky Marciano beat them.

    Well you see Joe Choynski beat Jack Johnson, and Joe Walcott beat Joe Choynski, and George Gardner beat Joe Walcott, and Bob Fitzsimmons beat George Gardner, and Philadelphia Jack O'Brien beat Bob Fitzsimmons, and Stanley Ketchel beat Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, so Stanley Ketchel would destroy Jack Johnson.

    Edit: Joe Louis lost to Max Schmeling, who lost to Jack Sharkey, who lost to Primo Carnera, who lost to Young Stribling, who lost to Frank Carbone, who lost to Mike O'Dowd, who lost to Jack Britton, who lost to Ted Kid Lewis, who lost to Duke Lynch, who lost to Jack Foy, who lost Johnny Hughes, who lost to Jimmy Wilde.

    Lennox Lewis lost to Oliver McCall, who lost to Buster Douglas, who lost to David Bey, who lost to
    Trevor Berbick, who lost to Bernardo Mercado, who lost to John Tate, who lost to Mike Weaver, who lost to Howard Smith, who lost to Earnie Shavers, who lost to Stan Johnson, who lost to Johnny Griffin, who lost to Ed Williams, who lost to Roy Lee, who lost to Rudolph Bent, who lost to Jose Castaneda, who lost to Humberto Carrillo, who lost to Alfonso Rivera, who lost to Tommy Vazquez, who lost to Otilio Galvan, who lost to Joe Garcia, who lost to Lou Bernal, who lost to Harry Wicker, who lost to Kent Martinez, who lost to Manuel Ortiz, who lost to Pablo Dano, who lost to Boy Walley, who lost to Speedy Dado, who lost to Newsboy Brown, who lost to Willie Davies, who lost to Victor St. Onge, who lost to Spider Ryan, who lost to Spike Sullivan, who lost to Jack Duffy, who lost to Eddie Moha, who lost to Jack Redmond, who lost to Billy Morehead, who lost to Johnny Stone, who lost to Kid Herman, who lost to Clarence Forbers, who lost to Johnny Reagan, who lost to Pinky Evans, who lost to Casper Leon, who lost to Jimmy Barry.

    And if Jimmy Barry and Jimmy Wilde can beat Lennox Lewis and Joe Louis respectively, then so could Roman Gonzalez, and Ricardo Lopez.

    (I think I've found my new favorite boxrec game)
