It's a while since I watched him, to be fair. Don't imply I know nothing, maybe the fights I saw weren't his best!
I don't know for sure, but Nigel never took punches that well before or after, that's for sure. It helps when the referee holds your opponent back...
I grew up reading about the great champions of the past. Then came video footage and later youtube. There are still probably fighters I haven't...

How did Turpin get up from that first right hand, Burt?

The point of the thread was to ask the question, not to claim any mythical qualities for Marciano. Do you think it was a great shot or not?...
Sanders's shots have more pop because they are landing on Vlad! And Shavers's right hand that knocked Holmes down would be enough to kayo Vlad.
Are you on medication? You should be.
