Either you are ignorant or trolling, or you YDSAB. Marciano fought everyone who was available. Like it or not, I believe his final tally of top 10 guys by Ring Magazine was 9-10. He also beat a few future HOF fighters as well. I hate when people act like he fought a bunch of garbage and avoided tough fights. He did no such thing.
A 210 pound Marciano is a fat ass with a beer gut. Lewis would knock him into 7th row then take his donuts he was probably eating during the ring walk.
Wait until your friend comes down off of his LSD trip and ask him about Lennox vs Rocky Marciano again. If he still thinks Marciano could beat Lewis, have him Baker-Acted.
What a dumb thing to say when you dont even know the fighter youre criticizing. He was 190pounds in his youth and he wasnt even near being fat.
No he wasn't dude. Marciano was 5'7. .My uncle did a research project on boxer's actual height and weight. Marciano was 5'7. he stuffed his shoes for photos. He also weight like 165 walking around weight. Lewis was 6'5 and 244... Lewis outweights Marciano by like god damn 80 pounds.. He's also the much better boxer. Lewis will dominate every single second of every single minute of every single round (2) on route to a brutal soul rendering ass ****ing KO that will be felt all the way in Rome . I like the Rock. I have him over Vitali mainly because of Vitali quitting. But Marciano stands no chance. none . against Lewis. None. The shot version of Lewis that tko6 Vitali would have killed any version of Rocky..
Good post. Marciano will be a super middle weight today. I think he will rule the division though. Easily. I think he will KO Ward.
:roll::roll::roll: Just STFU. He was lean at 185-190. With today's nutrition advancements, he would be 200-210 and still look good. ****ing moron.
You are a ****ing piece of work. You are really going to make me do this? In no order, all ranked in the top 10 with the exception of Savold. Louis, who was on a winning streak and beat his own top 10 fighters by Ring before he lost to Marciano. Yes, past his prime, but if Rock was just another trash contender than Louis should have beat him. Moore, who went back to LHW after this loss and won the crown again. Older, but did better with age. Lies and BS that he was too old when he fought Marciano. If he was so old, how was he able to win and defend the LHW title again? Walcott, another older but tough champion who was again favored to beat Marciano. Got starched twice. Charles, tough as nails fighter and former HW champ, who lost the title to Walcott and was only a couple years older than Marciano. Layne, favored to beat Marciano and had upset a 34 year old Walcott years earlier, got KTFO. Lastarza, one of the top contenders of the era by Ring Mag. Matthews, lost title eliminator to Marciano by getting KTFO in round 2. Had an 81-3 record going into the fight. Cockell, British champ, beat Matthews and Lastarza to get a fight versus Marciano. Savold, lower grade contender with nearly 100 wins when Marciano beat him. He was ranked in the top 10 less than a year before Marciano knocked him out. Say what you want, but Marciano beat who was put in front of him, no matter how you feel about that. He beat the best available. Simple as that. If Marciano was SO BAD, he would NOT HAVE WON 49 IN A ROW. Haters gonna hate.
Why the hell are you getting overly excited? Nobody said Marciano was bad. He was a good little champion... good for his era. But putting him in the 90's era would be like putting Jerry West in today's NBA.. West would be clowned by Westbrook and Lebron and be utterly and completely dominated. Now Marciano could have been a top 10 heavyweight in THIS ERA.. because this current era is utterly ****. It's like if all the superstars in the NBA vanished and the NBA is left with Dwight Howard and Roy Hibbert and the rest are 2nd stringers.. Marciano (Jerry West) will rightfully be the 5-8th best in THAT NBA.
