    Sedreck Fields vs Shannon Briggs
    Fields averaged 89 punches per round.

    Hasim Rahman vs David Tua I.
    Rahman averaged 84 punches per round.

    Ike Ibeabuchi vs David Tua
    Ibeabuchi averaged 81 punches per round.

    James Toney vs Vassily Jirov (taking cruiserweights, as Marciano fought as a cruiser too)
    Jirov averaged 86 punches per round against Toney's 81 punches per round.

    So what the big deal about Marciano?

    AH very transparent remark and I guess because he is a White Italian it would be impossible for him to go through a whole career beating the best white and Black fighters fighting the best and staying unbeaten...by the way he was a dominant champion:smoke

    This dose seem to be the crux of the problem.

    Many people resent the idea of an undefeated white champion who beat the best black contenders of the era and has an unshakeable claim to be ranked among the heavyweight elite.

    A lot of Marciano haters are no better than the human detritus who hounded Jack Johnson because they could not acept the idea of a black man holding the heavyweight title.

    Same cloth diferent era.

    Firstly these are quite exceptional outputs by the standard of the heavyweight division and all are over twelve rounds. Indeed one is the all time record for a twelve rouund fight which Marciano tied over fifteen.

    Secondly some of these outputs were achieved by winging arm punches the entire fight. Marcfian actualy achieved similar outputs while putting his body into many of the shots.

    Boy, are YOU on the mark. Whoever that guy is picking Ibeabuchi in ONE ROUND over Marciano, come on!

    One Suzie Q from Marciano, Ike on his butt for the count. I'll be charitable and give it about nine rounds.

    Ike troubles him but Marciano stops him late.

    If we held a fantasy match between Rocky Marciano and Postman Pat then the usual suspects would pipe up that Postman Pat was too big and skilled for Marciano.

    This is also how I see the fight unfolding.

    Marciano would need a good cut man though because that black and white cat has sharp claws.
