    Marciano at his fighting weight would KO Conn in less than 8. Louis was severley dehydrated for a boxer and managed to KO Conn in 13.

    He did make a mistake. He went for the KO, when he shouldn't have. He decided to stand there and exchange with the Brown Bomber, when he could've easily not stayed in the pocket like he did.

    Conn's famous quote: "I have too much "Irish" in me.
