    Wilson weighed in at 190 or thereabouts a few times early in his career before putting on a little weight. A blown up cruiserweight but undoubtedly one of the most durable and cagey fighters of his sort ever at heavyweight. Dude was a brick **** house physically. I'll never forget watching him somehow stun Ike during their bout... :eek:

    Anyway, what happens? How does this extremely strange match-up go?

    If Wilson can go the distance with a monster like Ibeabuchi who was 230+ pounds he can certainly go the distance with Marciano.

    What heavyweight has the best chance to stop Wilson? Joe Louis? Young Wlad?

    Marion would show Rocky what a iron chin really looked like!

    Over 12 rounds hell yeah under 12 it is 50/50 chances that Rocky will KO him, maybe tko but for sure Rocky would beat him anyway.

    If Francois Botha couldn't KO Wilson then Marciano would stand no chance.

    I wonder how many juiced to the gills prospects Wilson fought, all trying to use him as a stepping stone to be the first to knock him out. Tough career!
