IN WHICH OTHER DECADE DOES MARCIANO GO 49 :0?

1700's?

 

Seriously though ,its a very intruiging question.Would he have defeated younger versions of Charles and Walcott? How would he have done in the 1970's? The 20's The early 1900's against,Jeffries, Langford,Johnson, Jeannette, McVey?

 

1900-10 seems good bet. 1920s perhaps. Depends how you rate him vs Dempsey. I pick him over Dempsey and Tunney based on his reign which, while peppered with light heavies and/or past prime fighters, still saw a better body of work than the two 20s stalwarts achieved imo.

 

From Sullivan to Johnson 1885-1908.
Between Dempsey and Louis, 1926-1937.

I think he's competitive vs Dempsey, Johnson and Louis, but they beat him eventually.
Otherwise he beats everyone else from 1885-1937.

 

probably none
1910's Jack Johnson, 1920's Dempsey1930s or 1940s hed have to deal with a much better Louis than he actually faced. 1960s -1970s Ali. 1980's Holmes, Tyson 1990s Lewis 2000s Klitchkos

I don't really know about before Johnson, but do many really rate that era.

He came around at the perfect time to do what he did.

 

We are basically looking for a four year window here, assuming that he is matched the same way as he was in his own time.

I submit that there are quite a few such windows, where he could conceivably get the same results.

 

Possible.

 

Well, staying on top for a decade the way Wlad or Joe Louis by fighting some or all of the top 3 title opponents in a ten year span is very rare!

Defending it six times could have been done in the following times.

John L Sullivan's 1880's

Tommy Burns / Jack Johnson time from 1905-1915, perhaps the easiest title defenses ever

Post Tunney to Pre-Joe Louis

Floyd Patterson's title opponents pre Sonny Liston.

 

Fighting dross like
Chambers
Old Rahman
Old Byrd
Austin
Brock
Castillo
Leapai
Pianetta
Wach
Mormeck
Quite a few champs would cruise through them.
