    I read for months about different boxers routines and so forth. I wanna talk about rocky marciano for a moment and his routine.. every time i read about rocky marcianos regiman it seemed like he never gave his body recuperation what can u say about this?..... and also does any body know if he did pull ups, dips, pushups...and if so how many of each and how often of each?

    I think by today's standards, he was probably training too much. He would sometimes spar over 200 rounds for a fight.
    Oddly, in his preparations for his fight with Moore he sparred only 85 rounds, and he said he felt much fresher than normal as a result.

    Food back then was much better, Rocky NEVER participated in VADA/USADA testing and he obviously ducked someone with early retirement at 32.

    The reason for so much drug testing these days is there are too many short cuts ..fighters of today have it much easier than their predecessors..They train less ,don't refine their craft and can't fight for the whole round ! Rocky would run through most of the heavy wastes today ,with the exception of the super heavies like the klitchkos !
