Lennox Lewis vs Rocky Marciano

If Rahman and McCall could KO Lennox so could Marciano.

 

Damn you raging hard brah.
Marciano was 160 pounds at age 24.. we all know this.

Transcript between Marciano and Rick Lamerssi

"Rocky you feeling good champ"

Yes Sir Feeling Good and feelin strong
160 Pounds of lean muscles and ready to rumble'

Lewis outweight him by like 90 pounds.

 

Nice ALT by the way. The ****** who said his uncle told him Marciano was 160 had a different user name. **** off, troll.

 

Mariciano weighed in the 180's when he won the belt. So him being 160 years prior to that is ****ing irrelevant as ****.

I am raging because you are a lying *****.

 

Lewis by very early KO, nothing against Marciano, but the size is too much.

 

Prove it.

 

Proof that SkinChecker is a trolling alt.

He claims his uncle told him Marciano was 160. Look at the user name. It's not SkinChecker. Post 37.

So taste it you *****.

 

Prove Marciano was 180's during his title fight. Prove it

 

Do some ****ing research, *******. It's a PROVEN FACT.

Also, if you sign up for BoxRec, they provide weights for each bout that were recorded. They use to do it by default but changed it.

Nice alt, ******. I just exposed you.

 

You are such a troll. It's sad.

 

This site claims this information to be from Ring Magazine, May 1953.

Still want more, ******? There is NOTHING out there proving he was 160. Did you sign up for BoxRec yet so you can be proven wrong even further?

Stature
Marciano was an unlikely boxer, given his stature. He was only 5-foot-10 and change, and his weight hovered in the mid-180s. His reach of only 68 inches was well short for a typical heavyweight champion. However, Marciano transformed his stature into an advantage. Under the tutelage of his trainer, Charley Goldman, Marciano learned to box from a crouched position, thus making himself even shorter and more difficult to hit. His jabs came straight up and with tremendous force. Marciano was once quoted as saying that his style benefited him because most of his opponents "wound up punching down at me," defusing much of the punch's power. An upward punch, on the other hand, carries increased power. That may be one reason that the only two fighters who knocked Marciano to the canvas, Walcott and Moore, were both Marciano's size. That fact, Marciano once said, negated the advantage he usually had in the ring.

Conditioning
Marciano kept in such superb physical condition that he was able to fight every few weeks or even days. In fact, after knocking out Harold "Kid" Mitchell in the second round on March 20, 1951, he climbed back into the ring six days later to knock out Art Henri in the ninth round. And he needed only seven days' rest between his knockout of Johnny Pretzie in the fifth round on March 21, 1949, and his knockout in the first round of Artie Donato on March 28. Thirteen days later, he knocked out James Walls in the third round.

 

I am done wasting my time with you and your "uncle's" shitty homework assignment. **** you and your lame ass uncle.

 

Its not even about the size difference, Marciano was dominated and out boxed by many fighters, he was being beaten up by Walcott before he sparked him out. If you analyse Lennox Lewis's career, nobody really dominated him, he lost due to being complacent. Head to head Lennox Lewis is probably the toughest heavyweight of all-time to face, or one of them! This fight ether goes two ways, Lennox Lewis will blast him out or just out box him for 12 rounds.

Lennox Lewis is not only the bigger fighter, he is the more athletic, and probably a all round better boxer.

Marciano is ****ed.
