Can you imagine any lhw or Cruiser staying in there with Marciano today? Imagine that cloud is considered one of the heaviest hitting LHW's today. marciano would murder him. Incredible all that he accomplished for being a 5'10 180lb fighter
David Haye at Cruiserweight would have battered Marciano like a rubber toy. Too good an athlete and a faster, heavier hitter than anyone Rocky ever faced.
Lol. Shows what you know - if Mormeck can walk Haye down and if Thompson can KO him Marciano would ****ing brutalize him. Marciano - unlike Haye - isn't just a slugger. there was a YT video a few years back that highlighted all his subtle skills my friend. I suggest you hunt it out :good
Holyfield would beat Marciano at crusierweight. Haye has a shot too with is power. Also Dwight Quawi I think would have beaten Marcaino as well.
Here pal I've seen tons of Marciano and his subtle skills worked against a string of meatbags and faded veterans. Although the athletically gifted Don Cockell was clearly a dynamite opponent "Marciano - unlike Haye isn't just a slugger" is priceless Haye is an infinitely better boxer than Marciano and would toy with him. Marciano is SLOW!
Id agree Holyfield would have a chance to beat Marciano, my god what a war that would be over 15 rds. I see Marciano stopping Haye and Qawi.
****! Holyfield would put Marciano in a subway sandwich. Thanks for the common sense. The amount of pussypukes on here who watch Marciano highlights with a sad song playing over them and then assume he could kill every mother****er who laced up gloves never ceases to amaze me.
Yeah laugh it up, it's ****in true though. Stop listening to Rocky stories your old man tells you and look at what's in front of you. Marciano was easier to hit than a heavybag and Haye would **** him up with abandon.
Cruiserweight Holy, he'd be competitive and have a height adv and would know how to use it, but Marciano was just as competitive and athletic as Holy and even tho he was more crude, he was basically a LHW taking shots from cruisers and HW's. If Holy was having trouble with Qawi, I'm sorry he might of been the best CW, but Rocky knocks him out. At HW, prime Holy had the attributes to beat just about anyone. Qawi was a beast, but he'd be outgunned by a bonafide ko artist like Rocky. Hayes? No. Monte Barrett, Valuev, Enzo are not Marciano. Aside from Tyson and Holy, Marciano was one the hardest training HW's of all time. He was always in shape. Can't say that about most HW's, depending on too much "modern" methods to help them win.
Joe Walcott was a better boxer than haye could ever wish to be. Rocky is well known to be one the the hardest hitting heavies ever. Haye would be laid out cold.
