In what way does Wlad look superior to Primo? This is the same clumsy giant who had a load of trouble with Sultan Ibriganov of all people, despite his trainer telling him that he needed the KO or it would look terrible. Klitschko did not get the KO and was made to look clumsy and gutless in that fight, and his opponent came there for a pay check and that was it.
:blood doubt it, samuel peter looks tired but he is mainly wearing down his fighters by leaning on them in clinches casuing them to waste more energy, im sorry but marciano couldnt perform with a fighter leaning 17 stone on him and making the fight akward, dont really know how many of his fights you seen?
You watch those giants of the 40's and you can see there not as co-ordinated or as fast as the likes of Lewis and Wlad, sorry but Carnera and wlad are comparable in size only thats it.
Why would Marciano go to a fight to wrestle? Guys in the 50's rarely clinched, not because they didn't want to, but because they could actually fight and it would often lead to getting punches with clean shots. Peter was outboxed by a fat and out of shape James Toney with no power, yet he'll just run all over Marciano? Peter?
Maybe you see with your ears or other people's opinions, but I see with my eyes and I see Klitschko when I see Carnera. It's easy to say a guy is uncoordinated RELATIVE to the fighters of that era. Did Klitschko look incredibly coordinated when he fought Sultan Ibriganov? He missed with most of his punches, doesn't even have an uppercut, and was slammed to the floor like a lumbering, uncoordinated giant. Watch the film. Don't just speculate. Watch it.
Wlad is a complete fighter, you really belive than primo, is level with him? pay check! he was undefeated evreyfighter looks to keep there undefeated record, who cares a wins a win, many heavyweight fights end up looking bad its a clashing of styles, many of the 50's fighters had 1 style which is forward, which in turn made fights look really good, but also made fighters look really good, by knocking people through ropes and landing flush each time, but seriously those guys had no defense, and there sense of skill was very limited to even say marciano would dominate modern fighters is crazy
I completely disagree with what you said about 50's styles, as it is painfully evident that you've never watched Jersey Joe Walcott, Ezzard Charles......or let me stop....probably anybody from the 50's, BUT... I also disagree with Wlad being a complete fighter. Doesn't a complete fighter have an inside game or an uppercut? Where is Wlad's inside game and uppercut? Exactly.
Marciano or Peter? I was a big Peter supporter, but I'm really hopeless with him now. I personally see him tired in many fights (although he had a good run after the Toney rematch). I don't think Peter beats Marciano because Rocky is the much more skilled fighter. I think he would smother Peter's punches and land clean shots on his head and chin. Anything can happen in a boxing match, but I do not see Samuel Peter beating Rocky Marciano, I don't think his style suits him at all, and this is coming from someone who's picked against Marciano before.
you must of miss read, many fighters of today go to clinch, to waste opponents energy, marciano wouldnt want to wrsetle and keep pushing peter away he would hate it and really want to fight, guys in the 50's were limited to skill, dont start saying there better fighters, a fighter like peter would wear marciano down, peter won both those fights with toney! and maricano is a 50's fighter you really think he is capable of controling a fighter who is 20th century trained and is a great at controling the ring, sorry but you must be crazy if you think marciano could dominate peter like all other fighters
ive seen various fights from that era , and ive just been watching more of rocky marciano there, does he have a jab, jab, left hook, or aiming for shots when his opponenets are hurt, it does look wild, and even then look at the defense of his opponents it does look quite flawd to todays modern fighters which fights does wlad need in which he has really needed a inside game, but why would he have to flaunt it when nobody can even get past his jab
I was talking about peter, really peter, he is tough to watch but he really is a tough fighter, and any1 who knocks wlad down 3 times does deserve respect in power, I know anything can happen but i dont see marciano, fighting the fight he wants, against peter, who would be holding and smothering maricano making his punchs less effective, and he cant perfrom witha 17 stone peter leaning on him all night,then getting shots of in the body and head, i dont see marcianos style beating peters wearing down style
Looks more like Vitali. Wlad does not release the hold so quickly, he would not let Louis push him around in a clinch and does not retreat into a counter stance. :verysad
