    As a all round fighter this isn't a matter of H2H ability as the winner would be blindingly obvious and needs no thread of its own.

    I'd like you to review the Sharkey fight George and see Primo's educated jab control the fight he (Primo) is clearly the more dominant Ring-general able to neutralize the smaller man with ease on step selection, timing and jabbing alone before ending it in a flurry once his prey was helpless a professional coldness he possess it installs a chill whenever i play that boxing master piece.

    that fight also displays his quicker more intelligent feet and faster hands P4P when you compare weight that's incredible indeed, Primo appears to have the more versatile punch selection of the two aswell suggesting he is the more adaptable fighter.

    Rocky is methodical plodding and throws basic but effective clubbing punches if all my above points are not apparent to you id like for you to show me where Rocky possesed the greater....

    Ring-Generalship
    Jab
    Punch variation
    Hand Speed
    Outside fighting
    Clinching
    Foot work
    Heart

    I don't think that it is a crazy question at all. Marciano was not exactly ray robinson. Only a tough,strong guy with great stamina and huge power for his size but technically hardly a wonder

    This is like choosing between a creme brûlée and an apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

    And for that reason, I'm out.
