Could Roland Lastarza have succeeded in other eras?

Lame counter, try again, I give you one more try...

 

Also as stated he got wrecked by marciano in the second fight, and putting your amrs up to defend against a quick powerful and skilled boxer isn't a good defence.

 

Marciano had at least twice the power Haye has, and we know that LaStarza made 2 good fights, when a SMW is able to drop and hurt Haye, and a featherfisted "puncher" like Fragomeni also, I have no doubts that LaStarza would KO Haye...

 

Yeah your not bias, either fool, how does marciano punch twice as hard as haye, that is the stupidest thing i have ever heard.

 

I don't understand the logic of this post. I would think a fast stepping defensive fighter is the best possible bet against one punch ko power--for example, Tunney against Dempsey. You cannot knock out what you cannot hit.

 

Haye has a nice padded KO-record, but he stopped nobody until now. Fragomeni quitted because of the bodypunches (he wasn´t trained that well and is 38 years now, even though it was a close fight until the 9th round), against Thompson, a good fighter, but only with a mediocre chin, and old and shot at that point, he gassed out and was TKO´d, Other fighters like the Danish one he needed to land punch after punch until he finally TKO´d them late... not as spectacular as like you try to hype him...

 

Yeah but he could be hit though, thats the problem, it's not like he was super elusive like willie pep, he took alot of punch'sto the arms and slipped them, against a guy that hits as hard as haye i don't think it's a good combo.

 

Yeah,he was wrecked, by Rocky Marciano,never the same again.

 

Marciano would've wrecked David Haye too,probably within 8.

 

@ hotti_killer, yeah, we all agree, you say indirectly that Marciano fought only bums, even today CW´s would easily beat them. I completely agree, Haye would KO LaStarza in the first 2 rounds... :thumbsup

 

Your a moron, where have i ever said that marciano foguth bums, your to up your own arse and old fighters arse's to give a decent opinion on anything. You can't even give reason why you think roland would beat haye, you just say yeah marciano punch's twice as hard which is the most bias thing i have heard in this thread.

 

I´m biased now? Hell, some of you forums-kiddies here are funny, excatly the thing I say to you, you try to contort! LaStarza was one of the best fighters in his era, he had a great defense, very good chin, good skills and enough power to KO a at CW chinny fighter. Like I wrote, Haye, who hasn´t even proved himself at CW right now (against the elite) should now beat one of those good HW-fighters like LaStarza? Laughable!

 

He fought in an era of some of the worst competion ever in the heavyweight ranks and came up short, where as if haye beats mormeck he will be the cruiserweight champion of the world in an era when the cruiserweight division is pretty strong.

 

Bull****, the division wasn´t weak, it was a solid one. Surely better than the Tyson-era, or now the "era of the fatties and chubbies"...

 

So Haye would have beaten Joe Walcott,Ezzard Charles,Joe Louis and Rocky Marciano?
