    Probably. Marciano ain't beating Lewis in a million years.

    That might be true, but it doesn't mean that offering facts (not opinions, but facts) is an option that doesn't checks all the boxes when it comes to demonstrating a great understanding of the sport.

    Where the hell is this going ? I feel like we set a record for subjects changed in a discussion that will probably stands forever!

    Finally a sensible breakdown. I have the utmost respect for Marciano and never would fully count him out but against all the fighters to whom ever lived I feel Lennox is the worst matchup for him. Lennox could move or stand in front of you or lean. He beat many a good short men to prove this in Tua and Tyson.

    Without reading the posts, let me guess: "Marciano's height is too short so Lewis kills him." "Marciano's reach is too short so Lewis kills him." "Marciano's weight is too low so Lewis kills him." Marciano would be a Light Heavyweight today so Lewis kills him." Marciano would be a Middleweight today so Lewis kills him." "Marciano could drain his water weight, weigh in as a 147 pound welterweight, and then re-hydrate 40 pounds to 187 pounds by fight night so Lewis kills him." "Walcott and Moore knocked Marciano down so Lewis kills him." Does that about cover it? :p
