  1. frazier would have beat walcott,charles and old louis. but marciano would have been raped by foreman and schooled by ali.
    rocky wouldn´t be undefeatedin any other era.

    AND IT IS NOT SPECULATION IT IS A FACT :good

    I feel Rocky has the style edge over Frazier in a fight. All this about a "195 pound Walcott dropping Marciano" is nonsense talk. I guess Joe Louis is a bum too? Walcott could friggin punch. Better than Quarry, and Ellis I imagine. Quarry hurt Joe in their fight too. In fact, Joe was hurt fairly often in fights. Even against Terry Daniels he said that he "Felt his punches, and had trouble with fighting a smaller target." I imagine he was being nice, and I also imagine that he can't go to the body and head as efficiently against a target that's more in a ball and lowered to the ground. Can anybody show me an example of Marciano looking more hurt or really rubbery legged than Frazier in a fight? Forget about the Foreman fight. We all know he was a murderous puncher.

    I guess the smaller man syndrome is being over-played. The guys that dropped him were both conveniently under 200 Lbs. One of them happens to have the most KO's in the history of boxing and an astonishing record of KOing men over 200. And the other one had Louis down 3 times and had 245 pound Abe Simon saying he was the "hardest puncher he had faced."

    In close quarters head to head fight I think strength, power, chin, and stamina are more important factors than size. Size matters when you've got the ability to get out of reach and stay at a distance. Nobody thinks Marciano's power isn't a threat if he were fighting Ali... just that Ali could move out of way and play for keeps jabbing at Rocky. Against Frazier, this won't matter. That's why I give him the edge.

    No, it is only speculation.

    If you can interpret the outcomes of fights that have never happened as facts, then why dont you wager £100 on the outcomes of five major upcoming fights?

    You can speculate that other fighters could have beaten Marciano's oponents, but they didnt beat them, he did!

    You seem to be having some trouble understanding what the word fact means.

    The word fact derives from the

  11. i never said " joe was MUCH better than rocky"

    JOE was better in ALMOST EVERYTHING, ROCKY WAS HARDER PUNCHER WITH THE RIGHT HAND, AND MAYBE LIGHTLY MORE DURABLE, END OF THE HISTORY.
    JOE WAS MORE SKILLED,FASTER, BIGGER,HEAVIER, HE HAD BETTER DEFENSE, HE HAD BETTER LEFT HAND, AND HE DID MORE PRESSURE. AND YES, IN MY OPINION JOE WOULD WIN BY SD BECAUSE ROCKY WOULD GIVE HIM A FIGHT.
    IF YOU ARE ******ED( IF YOU CAN´T READ,IT IS NOT MY PROBLEM).
     
  12. IN THE ALTERNATIVE FINAL ALI WON BY TKO. IT IS A FACT AND THE MOST REALISTIC FINAL:good
     
  13. i understand perfectly this word, to me it is a fact because is very very highly probable

    did ali and jimmy young hit so much harder than rocky? did peralta (who pastrano knocked out) have a beter chin than rocky? how can you be so sure? didnt lyle put george over with a simular punch that rocky used?


    perhaps, but cooper was no heavier than marciano and he had ali on his ass, how can you know for sure?

    why? To be absolutly certain frazier woulld have to have to at least knocked out some great fighters. as much as I love frazier tell me exactly how many linear heavyweight champions he KO'd? bonavena had frazier in bad trouble, was the bonavena who was schooled by an old zora foley beter than walcott and charles?

    who is saying that?

    No, it is not your problem that I apparently can't read. You do, however, definitely have some other problems.
