    they are both the same size inbetween 190-200 and prime lamotta has never been knocked down ,prime marciano has come off the canvas to win. two similar styles,builds and mental toughness along with the will to win or die trying who takes this victory and how?

    They are both the same size?? Surely you must be talking about the size of their noses.

    no way, thats not happening at least not in the first round .i mean jake only has the greatest chin ever .the man is world wide renowned for taking punishment and eating it like candy. as well as does marciano, but the rock has been knocked down.

    Marciano KO1 if they fought, is the OP trying to ask if theoretically Lamotta was 190-200lb HW what would happen? Then Marciano wide UD

    Marciano KO within 3.

    No disrespect to Jake, but Marciano would have no trouble finding him and Rocky's firepower is immensely better than anyone Jake ever fought.

    all im trying to say is that they are both in their prime and they are both heavies. marcianos been down before and came back to win, lamottas never seen the canvas and has also came back to win from way behind. so now without the bs comments whats the outcome?
