    No no. He would need to do much more than THAT to be even considered along with Marciano.

    I've yet to read a post by you in which you don't pluck an unsupported hypothesis out of the air.

    Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying he'd be an ATG. I'm saying that he'd be considered, in my book, a serious fighter worthy of holding a belt.

    Boxing a bigger man for a average to capable fighter is exhausting. You have to work twice as hard to make only half the impression. You can't move them back, even when they half hit you their weight still registers. I accept it as is a bad experience.

    They sap your strength, you become tired quickly.

    But this is when EVERYTHING but the size is equal.

    If you are better all round and only smaller you can make a ****** of a big man. Have him run onto things. You work harder, you still have to be careful But you know this.:good

    I would not say my views are not unsupported at all. its just that they might not have made it into mainstream established opinion yet. But I can back anything up. Just as you can.

    If a recognised sports writer writes something down about boxing as fact it's often just his opinion. An opinion from a guy who spreads his interest over many other different sports that he might also never have participated in either. But because he has the recognition of the paper he writes for his opinions will make it into the mainstream view.

    Bigger fighters are harder to beat. Great fighters are hard to beat too. Everyone has an opinion.

    Though Choklab is very biased and hateful when it comes to Sonny Liston, among others, I have respect him because he doesn't insult or have a foul mouth like others here.

    You actually agree Wilder's opponents are just as good as Marciano's?

    I can agree with this. I fought a guy 6'3" between 15 & 16stone,I couldn't physically move him.

    I believe Moore, Charles ,and Walcott are better than anyone Wilder has faced.
    I believe Duhaupas,Molina, Stiverne and possibly Scott beat,

    I find him frustrating ,infuriating,irritating, exasperating,and b*ll*ck-aching.
    That doesn't mean I disrespect him.

    Your first sentence automatically means you disagree with his statement. It is an absurd dum dum boy claim.

    Shkor is comparable to Ferguson, not the best record but he did upset several contenders and give some stern tests.

    Going into the Walcott and Marciano fights, he was coming off a win over Rusty Payne who had just been third rated.

    Slender4..

    Why would you comment on my post to slender4 without reading what I was replying to?

    I'm not being oblique, you just were desperate to insult me without thinking or reading, what a dum dum boy move.

    Going into the Marciano fight he was coming off a 1.5 minute ko blast out loss to Walcott.:think
