Rocky Marciano KO1 Mike Tyson

mcgrain i still hadvnt forgiven you for calling my head gym trainer the very wise goody petronelli "shitty" in the zab judah thread.

 

tyson didnt seem to let his hands go enough in this fight. i would like to see a rematch

 

Honestly, I see it the other way round.

Woller

 

God couldnt stop marciano in 1 round, maybe 2 or 3 or 4, but NOT 1. were talking about a man who never even saw stars in his career, a man who on film never appeared glassey eyed or rubbery legged from a punch.

 

To be honest my opinion of both fighters has gone down after seing this footage.

I have obviously been overrating both of them.

 

I thought this was a real prediction.

Nice video. Tough call. The man who found a way to beat everybody he fought vs a man that was in his prime 30 pounds heavier but lost at least to Buster Douglas in his prime. I think this would've been a war. I don't see Tyson having an advantage of bobbing and weaving. I think Marciano could've backed him up and Tyson was not great when guys got him to back up. Tyson was great when coming forward. We will never know for sure who would win. I slightly favor Marciano, but the toughest thing for me is him beating Tyson who was about 30 pounds heavier in his prime and still very fast.

 

but you also gotta consider if marciano were fighting today he would likely be heavier than he was 50 some years ago
