Every impressive name he ever fought was well passed his best, the most overrated fighter who ever existed.
Rocky met the #1 contender in every single title defence aside from one, where he met the #2, is the significant difference. You're not really Scottish are you?
OK Genius. Rocky Marciano was **** and David Haye is the best heavyweight of all time. You win. I think every single member of this forum will agree with you. You clearly know your boxing.
You sure about that? Walcott's original performance versus Marciano is probably his 4th or 5th best performance on film. He was about 14 months removed form one of the most celebrated KO's in the divisions history. Have you seen all these fights? Have you done this work, or ar you just parroting?
How do you cherry pick the fighter deemed #1 contender by an extermal source? You've got "most" Walcott fights?
If he had the exact same record and fights thru his whole career but wasn't a White American, nobody would even rate him near the top of the ATG lists.
Very good, you've said that. Now explain your remark that he was a "cherrypicker". He only fought the #1 ranked or #2 ranked contender (once) during his entire reign. What you are saying makes no sense.
And you say Walcott was "well passed it" for Marciano 1? Which fights would you contrast his performance with to make this point?
your list is ****. And yes if he was able to conquer both brothers he would be a top 100, if he cleaned out the division(Peter, Arreola, Adamek, Potvetkin, Chambers, Charguev/Meehan winner) we are talking top 50, perhaps higher or lower depending on how these guys are when they fight him(if they are shot to **** he doesn't get credit, like Danny Green doesn't get credit for beating the corpse of Jones).
