Marciano was way way better. He beat better opponents, was better overall and was underrated defensively.
What you talking about, Froch has to be giving up at least 10-15lbs The thing is Froch can't throw compact punches inside or mid range like Rocky, he can only wing telegraphed shots from the outside that are far from compact, he cant throw combinations, Marciano is probably quicker than him, Froch leaves his chin out to dry, Froch isnt the big puncher him and his fans think he is. Froch is pretty strong for a SMW, he is decent enough at fighting at the right range, a solid fighter, nothing special and if Kessler is on form he should win a UD AND HE LOST TO DIRRELL
Julio Cesear Chavez is Pernell Whittaker compared to Ricky Hatton Thats a good comparison. Both throw some shots from miles out. Nah, Ray Mancini was semi-skilled
