    Marciano could stop Ali I guess, but I wouldnt bet on it.

    I'd be very surprised if marciano beat Ali, but i would assume I'd be having a acid flashback if he actually managed to stop Ali

    No way. Marciano can't do anything Frazier couldn't do and Frazier was 20 lbs heavier

    Except one thing ,and its why I pick Marciano to beat Frazier,despite the weight and hand speed disparity .
    Rocky had two fisted power.
    Ali crucifies Rocky, jab, jab, jab, right cross,hold , break, jab ,jab,jab ,right cross, and so on and so forth.

    So, having fairly convincingly agreed that Rocky does not stop Ali, how does he beat him exactly?
    He sure isn't outpointing the first incarnation.
    Maybe that is a seperate thread.?
