    Ha ha! Sure, McVey(who I have no problem with) says the odd nice thing about Marciano, but I bet it's through gritted teeth!

    He's not as bad as his evil twin, MKK, though!

    What do you think of Marciano? I take the middle ground with him, to be honest.

    No,I've no problem giving credit where it's due.
    Marciano was a terrific fighter and a fine man.
    He just wasn't Clark Kent in boxing trunks.

    Which heavyweight champions do you think would have been able to avoid Joe Louis jab?

    Yes. I more or less agree with McVey's estimation. I personally don't think he could beat the very best big men, but I think he was a remarkable fighter in many ways.

    He had unbelievable will to win like Holyfield, was great to watch and hit like a *******!

    And nobody carried a suitcase full of *****s quite like Rocky.
