Firpo barely belonged in a boxing ring. Marciano tames him in 3 uncompetitive rounds.
Didn't we already see that same fight in 1923 (via film) give or take a round or two? Click here to register a FREE forum account and REMOVE ADS
Ive seen film of him outboxed by a bantam weight or one of the little weight classes, what the hell do people see in him?
Marciano was a slow starter too and lacked Dempsey's speed on the attack, You're right it'd take Rocky longer, maybe much longer, 6 or 7
Marciano takes longer to get him than Dempsey, because he was just a bit more methodical and less explosive, ever so slightly more cautious in his approach, but he would stop him nevertheless, probably around the 5th or so.
