Rocky Marciano Training Footage ( Rare )

Marciano looks **** on the speed bag and **** at the rope.
He could certainly punch , but too many men went too many rounds with him to call him the one punch kayo artist you and others do.

 

Agree 100%

 

Did you check out my C*ckell thread, by any chance?

 

Ummm, Rocky looks amazing on that speed bag. That is a world class performance on the bag. He's dynamic, has complete control of the bag while bobbing and weaving in rhythm. His accuracy and precision is pretty remarkable. He's throwing every punch you can, with the same precision most have while hitting the speed bag the normal way. He's alternating between power shots, light taps, while bobbing, weaving, and moving around the bag in different angles.

I guess this is why opinions here are so polar.

 

He had a 270 pound super heavybag specially made for him, kind of hard to make a 'dent'.

 

In the first Walcott fight, Rocky took away his legs and had him softened up. That set the stage for the final shot. Call it a one shot KO or not but he had in front of him a tired, softened up oldtimer who had just tried to finish Marciano two rounds before.

In the second fight, Walcott had simply retired long before he had entered the ring.

 

And he was nailing it with fast, powerful shots.

 

Was any heavyweight a "one punch KO artist" ? :think

 

Wow man. Do you really think like this?

It's like saying "Boxer A only scored a KO because boxer B took a step forward too early."

How can you discredit his power, simply because he wore him down in a grueling fight before landing the final blow? Thats absurd, I know you don't think like that.
