    Marciano's heaviest opponent was 213 pound Joe Louis.

    Marciano 5'10 1/2, 68 inch reach vs Price 6'8, 82 inch reach... LOL

    Who wins this time machine fight? Is Rocky Marciano too small for this era should he be matched against Ward/Kova/Stevenson instead??

    Skills pay the bills but this is a huge size difference.

    Oh my god, please stop.
    In the rules people that make this type of threads should be banned.
    Price has no chin, he was stopped countless times between the amateurs and pros, he doesn't have stamina for more than TWO FREAKING ROUNDS, has an awful tendency of putting his down under pressure and his boxing toughness is none.
    Rocky could throw 100 punches per round during 15 rounds, he had a great chin and power and the most important aspect, he was one of the toughest guys of all time, he stops Price cold and it would look easy.
    Just stop with these awful fantasy fights.
    What's next?
    The guy who fought against Anthony Joshua in his debut against Muhammad Ali?.

    lol, Hammer is a big guy and Price Dropped him Heavy, you're 100% confident Marciano at 185 can take a 275 Price's power?

    and I agree I pick Marciano, Slow down on the banning. I want to see if people think Price has a shot because of the size disparity

    This is true but Mr Jackson is Marciano's heaviest opponent.

    Yup good catch. I know there were big heavyweights even in the early 1900's but not like today.

    This would be an awesome fight even if it looks so weird because of the big size difference. I just really wonder if Price would be too big

    I just think maybe Marciano would fit in more at Cruiserweight or Light Heavy weight by Today's standards.

    Maybe Marciano KO's Price out of the ring worse than Teper did hahaha. I want to see what the community on here thinks.

    Rocky's Skills, heart, Stamina vs Price's Size

    Even when I boxed although I had a solid jab I wasn't a puncher but even I would think if I landed decent right on prices chin he'd feel it. Looooo

    Rocky is an insane puncher with insane toughness and stamina.

    Tko2 rocky

    Price can drop Rocky, Price can drop 19 out of every 20 men that have ever existed , he is huge, fast and hits hard af, but Rocky toughness made him a one in a million guy, you wouldn't find a guy with that determination very often and Price toughness was non existent, so yeah, maybe Price can knock Rocky down if he manages to land his best shot, but Rocky would win 99/100 unless Price lands the best shot he can in the very first round over an out of balance Rocky.

    The boxing gods cursed Price with a chin that just wasn't designed to be hit. Conversely, they blessed Marciano with one that was designed to withstand a tremendous amount of punishment and they also blessed him with savage power in his right hand. Price's size and weight advantage would be ridiculous and he possess serious power in his own right hand. But Marciano is just a completely different class of fighter and he'd spark Price out.

    This. Price would get mauled by Marciano. Stiverne made Price look useless and Stiverne is no Marciano.
