1951 Marciano vs 1987 Holyfield (CW)

Rocky by UD or TKO.

 

Rocky! - better then Qawi etc

 

Too tall too fast too much firepower. Holyfield by late TKO.

 

I think by 1987 Evander Holyfield’s abilities had surpassed those of the aged opponents who Rocky fought. I’m cautiously leaning towards Evander by a 15 round decision

 

Rocky was 10 times better than Qawi so Rocky, prime for prime it is 50/50 fight for me.

 

No he wasn't. Where do you come up with this garbage? Watch the film. Qawi was quicker, a better boxer and probably hit just as hard.

 

Zero chance he hit just as hard. They’re not in the same stratosphere.

 

Than that little attrition puncher? I'd wager most the cruisers since Piet Crous hit harder. Certainly an alpha like Qawi.

 

Probably plays out similar to Walcott. Marciano will eventually out pace him. Holyfield’s defense also wasn’t as good as Walcotts. Holys offense being better I’d prob say Walcott hit just as hard though. Marciano wins 2 of 3 fights

 

Marciano wasn’t an attrition puncher. He was just inaccurate as all heck. His biggest flaw.

 

It's Holyfield's fight to lose. He's bigger, more skilled, more PEDded up. All he needs to do is box Marciano and not try to slug with him. So probably 50-50 brcause when did Holy ever resist a shootout?

 

50/50

 

It plays out similar to Walcott II, with Marciano playing Walcott.

This is a laugher. Many of the rounds against Walcott I, Marciano was throwing 30 punches. I think Holy can hang.

The level of delusion it takes to ever peck out this on a keyboard is beyond my comprehension.

 

There wasn’t one bit of boxing technical breakdown in your entire rant.
