    Marciano with modern nutrition is 7'4 and 450 pounds and he could use the fusion with archie moore and his Dick gets bigger

    Are you implying Marciano had Dragon Ball Z like abilities? What about his power level?!

    I'd like to see Butterbean-size Marciano.
    Maybe against an old Larry Holmes.

    For the WBU intercontinental Jockstrap.

    I thought we heard from the horses mouth that Marciano could indeed not carry that jockstrap?

    You can generally put on about 15-25lbs of pure muscle before your workrate starts really suffering and drawbacks start really overshadowing the positives. Thats just a guesstimate based on what ive seen over time obviously a guy who really likes to move around and be elusive it would be on the lower end of the spectrum vs a tall big framed stalker/puncher.

    Dont forget that there are tons of examples in the lower weight classes of how bulking up affects fighters.

    My silly speculation (I'm no nutritionist)...
    I would guess that these days, Marciano would be following a different diet and training regime, fighting at Cruiser, and averaging about 193-194lb.
    He may then put on around 10lb to have a go at Heavy later in his career, weighing about 203-204lb.

    Maricano could get really fat, stop wearing a toupee, and he would still have his power and durability.

    He could be an awful lot like this guy...except have a right hand and winning spirit.

    Actual footage of Rocky Maricano at 193 pounds. Yeah, he better cut a pound back at least.

    The Rock: 5'-10.5", 200 lbs, 68" reach.


    (Of course it is well suspected Holyfield 'roid up from his
    Olympic 178 lb Lightheavy weight)

    He had a slightly bigger frame.
    So according to my calculations he is able to gain 50lb and still earn my respect, but I'll be damned if you give 25lb to the rock. Damned I say!

    And how old was Tua in that photo?Want to compare some when he was not nearly as nearly as old as Marciano was for the computer fight?

    You are very smart posting a pick of an old tua insinuating that he was in his prime. Tua was bigger, faster,stronger and more powerful than marciano so shut the ****

    I insinuate all and nothing. If you feel posting that pic is accusing you of being a crossdresser, you need to stop raiding McVey's lingere closet before coming here, not my problemo, home....E.

    I will not shut, I will not kneel, Marciano was a better baseball player than Tua, and could out perform him sexually with most women, depending on the time of day. Get your facts straight.

    All I know is if Orlin Norris was a similar height and reach to Tyson, Marciano and Tua and he was able to box almost as fat as Tuas most obese weights either side of Boxing at similar weights to Marciano and Tyson then it stands to reason that anything is possible. Orlin Norris proved it.
