    LOL at this bull****.

    Holy would take his ass to school.

    He would he clueless against Toney.

    I don't give two shits about that 0 on his record, because the only reason he had it is because his competition was horrible.

    Webbiano, thanks for responding.

    Louis never weighed in under 190 apart from in his first year as a pro, so he wasn't under consideration in my comment.

    I think JL was the GOAT at HW, but his best weight was probably 198-203. Having said that JL was the GOAT, In a H2H versus The Rock, I think it's a pick 'em fight.

    Replace the above listed 26 fighters with the 1st 26 opponents Marciano faced and out goes the 49 and 0 record. I'm not sure how many losses there would be but there would certainly be some losses. Holyfield stands a good chance as does Quawi and Toney. Even if Marciano beats them all....and I doubt that he would these fighters would be no stroll in the park. Throw Dempsey and Johnson in the mix and we've got some serious betting to do. I love Marciano but he's not superman...close maybe but still from planet Earth.
