    Is this the "fight" you are talking about? It is "computerized", or rather clips put together in a smart fashion. Ali and Marciano never fought each other.

    Rumble, why do you think everybody says it didn't happen?
    Why does it say "Computer bout" on the cover?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocky_Marciano
    You can see the fight is mentioned. It was a "computer fight":
    In July of 1969, shortly before his death, Marciano participated in the filming of the fantasy, The Superfight: Marciano vs. Ali. The two boxers were filmed sparring, then the film was edited to match a computer simulation of a hypothetical fight between them, each in their prime. The bout was aired on Tuesday, January 20, 1970. Marciano won by KO in 13.

    :patsch Comparing TERREL to the mentioned names is like comparing BIRD to ALI ! VLAD conquered 62 something boxers but they were nowhere as skilled as 67 ALI ! And TERRELL wasnt close to the KLITS or LL in skill or size ! ( he was as tall but nowhere near as large ! just like BOB FOSTER was as tall as ALI but nowhere as large !:deal

    Ali, but Superman fought without his superpowers. Ali went on to defeat an alien monster in a fight and save the Earth.

    Louis had the style to KO Ali, I like him big over ALi, Marciano would have given Ali trouble, Dempsey and Marciano would have caused Louis trouble but he would have handled Ali

    Neither was ever put unconscious by a single punch however at their best, there is a difference between being stopped and being laid out.

    And that's relative to their chin.

    And Liston was not past it when Ali dropped him with one punch. And yes I know the controversy.

    Lewis doesn't have to have a great chin to beat ATG, just like they don't have to have Lewis' size or power to beat him.
