[GIF] One of my favorite Marciano knockouts

Of course. But do you find the assumptions unreasonable?

 

You made a point of saying Lastarza was never stopped until he fought Marciano[2]. I asked which punchers he fought ?
You supplied none.

No need for sarcasm,it isn't my fault you don't have the information to reinforce your argument.

Arguing from ignorance?

 

No, I just stated a fact he was never stopped which is true. Marciano first man to stop him a nice feather in his hat if you ask me.

 

Don't we all have high standards.

 

I find all assumptions unreasonable. Including my own.

Lastarza was a well managed heavyweight ,the names that are conspicuously missing from his resume would fill a page ,what had he done to merit a title shot?
No,I question the mythology that fans envelope Marciano in.

He doesn't need or require it.He was a true great who doesn' t warrant being pumped up as a hyperbolic monster that farted thunder and ****ped lightning, a fighter that only needed to land one of his Suzie Q's to end a fight ,it isn't true.
To wrap him in fan boy BS does him a disservice and negates from his very real,and solid achievements.

 

You may know that ,some posts on here indicate the opposite,

 

This depends on the opposition,just as a long run of victories does.

 

I just have an aversion to anyone being mythologised.
You can criticize most any fighter on here without too much adverse reaction, but to even suggest Marciano was less than Thor and Odin rolled into one brings down the wrath of his considerable fan club upon your head.

 

I think Ali is at least as
mythologised as Marciano.

 

I'd say with more justification.

 

My favorite is the Layne ko.
