Is Anthony Joshua better athlete than Rocky Marciano?

And let's not forget the flavorless mush I call "root marm"!

 

Then you realize Joshua is a 6'6 250 pound guy and Marciano was a 5'10 180 pound guys. Marciano was a top athlete? He wasn't fast, strong,or agile even for a 180 pound fighter.

Lol Joshua would knock out Marciano in 1 round because Joshua is actually a heavyweight and Marciano would be a cruiserweight by modern standards.

 

I see. what about in boxing ability?

 

Lol you're not gonna last long here...

 

Well, great for you i guess.

 

Marciano's endurance was extraordinary and he was freakishly strong at 185lbs. Who knows what kind of animal he'd be this day and age with the knowledge in strength training, sports medicine and nutrition. Different eras.

 

Aren't you one of the guys who think Ali would beat everyone, including the SHWs? Fairly sure I saw you make very disparaging comments about modern era compared to Ali and Holmes eras. So, Marciano, who was actually closer to the size of a modern lhw, is completely out of his depth, but Ali, who came maybe 15 years after Rocky's prime, and who is the size of a modern CW, would dominate and own the modern shw's?

That is what's called hypocrisy, and reeks of agenda. Give them both a shot or neither a shot at modern shws.

 

Put all the PED's into Marciano that Joshua has taken and see what you would get!

 

They are boxers. Their athleticism is measured largely by their in ring success. So, get back to me when Joshua wins half a dozen fights over HOF'ers.

 

He ran all night in the Running Man......

 

He walked all way through the Terminator movies. funny that, despite being a superdooper robot.

 

Marciano trained harder than anyone else, his stamina was awesome...............he hit hard as hell, today he would have an even bigger advantage, he was only 5' 10.5" tall, only weighed 185lbs., if he was close to Joshua's size he would knock Joshua out, but today he would probably be fighting at cruiser weight..................

 

This is totally unrelated but if i remember right was this video not the argument some members made for Joshua beating Ali and arguing his footwork was better/faster cos he can run the 100m faster than Ali?

 

Lol! He'd probably be killing guys in the ring. Actually not probably... he would!

 

Cool. Corrie Sanders ran an 11 flat 100 meters at 15.
