    So did Dempsey, Walker, B.Leonard, B.Conn, Lomatta, Maxim, Pep, Tunney ,and even fighters like the Quarry Brothers.... It tells me that those idiots know as much about boxing as I know about piloting the space shuttle..... But I do know what it looks like,,,, like there actual knowledge of boxing...

    Marciano never beat anyone as good as Ward.

    They didn't need to be...

    And some were, those versions of Walcott, Moore and Charles beat Ward. By stoppage.

    Just checked. Ward is still undefeated and never fought those shells of great fighters.

    Your ridiculous if you think Ward's résumé stacks against Moore or Charles's.

    And you're a bias fool if you think Ward would beat Walcott from the first Marciano fight.

    Somehow Rex Layne, Joey Maxim, and Elmer Ray did it.

    Errr no, re-read. Marciano did it. I said that version. Does Ray, Maxim and Layne do that again? No. And we both know it.

    I don’t live under the delusion that fighters pushing 40 are new and improved.
