31 Years Old Marciano Fights Tunney After 3 years Out Of The Ring

Lifted a Mack truck off a hedgehog,and ran 20 miles with a Red Stag on his shoulders. Could have won gold medals had he entered the Olympics.Their loss our gain!

 

He has to catch Tunney before he can stop him.Lastarza ,a very poor facsimile of Tunney went eleven rounds against a prime Marciano.Also don't think Tunney was a powder-puff puncher ,he wasn't ,and Lastarza went into that fight with elbow problems.Here are the score cards at the time of the stoppage.
referee: Ruby Goldstein 7-3 | Harold Barnes 5-5 | Young Otto 6-4

Marciano with the added benefit of low blows,butts, hitting after the bell ,and when Cokkell was down, still took 9 rds to stop fat Don,yet he comes out of 3 years inactivity and stops Tunney in 6 rds?
Never on this planet!

 

You are entitled to your opinion but Id like to point out
that as regards Tunney's power,and your statement," he has nothing to keep Marciano off him".
Tunney was one of only 2 men to stop Bartley Madden,the other turned the trick in Madden's 6th fight, courtesy of a cut eye.Tunney knocked him cold.
"The end came after a little more than two minutes of fighting (in the third round) when Tunney backed Madden into a corner, gained his opening with a left jab and then crossed a crushing right to Madden's jaw," (AP) putting Madden down for nine. A left hook to the jaw then sent Madden down for the count."
Tunney was also the only man to ko Tommy Gibbons,who went the distance with Dempsey whom Tunney also floored .
Tunney threw swift cutting jabs and straight right hands, and Marciano cut pretty easily.
