Roy Jones vs. Rocky Marciano

Marciano got outboxed for long periods by Walcott and Charles. Jones is twice as fast as both and harder to hit. Marciano would have a hard time landing, even if it goes to the ropes, those slow shots are going ot be rolled out the way of

Jones would also land some brutal counters on Marciano who is so comparatively slow RJJ really would tee off with his best shots. If Moore/Walcott floor the Rock then RJJ could also do so.

Rocky's chance is to outmuscle and outwork Roy on the ropes and gradually breaking him down to score either a late KO or close UD victory

 

And Archie Moore wouldn't be able to deal with Jones power, he got ko'd by a novice in his prime, ko'd by MWs and beat up by WWs. RJJ is the elite puncher of his time from MW-LHW

Archie also wouldn't land on Jones, far too slow.

Now Charles I would pick over Jones

 

Jones was brilliant at his best, but I don't think he is winning this one against Rocky.

Middle to late round ko win for Marciano.

 

Likewise, I can see that side of it too. I just think Marciano hit a little harder than Tarver ;-)

Come on, Marciano wins.

 

no way could Roy's fragile Glass Jaw take punches from Marciano. No way in hell.

 

watch a prime Moore at 175 he was not slow, he was cat like fast and very heavy handed....Very Heavy Handed

 

Marciano would walk through him. It's an unfair comparison

 

Marciano by "First Punch Landed" K.O.
(I'll gurantee you even Jones himself would agree)

 

Sorry.

Jones.

Ain't.

Winning.

This.






Fight.

The End.

 

He knocked out Bert Whithurst, something Liston couldn't do in two fights.
