    Even at fifteen rounds, say wlad loses a bit of weight and drops to 225.

    He still has 3 stone on rocky. Its a genuine mismatch.

    Marciano gets close, th wins, simple as that. Look ad Adamek fight, he got close, froze. He had oportunites, only a few, but did nothing but back off. Marciano would not back off.

    Moore and Charles were still in primes, so was Walcott. Know when people say their prime ended? Right after Marciano beat them.

    Same liars saying Moore was past prime would be screaming that he ducked Moore if Marciano retied at 48 -0.

    Jesus Christ, an absolute proclamation of ignorance.

    Do you mind informing when exactly Adamek (who is three inches taller and has 8 inches of reach on Marciano) got inside on Wlad? Or are the Brothers K just interchangeable?

    Adamek never fought Wlad. Not sure what that has to do with anything.

    Chagaev's a better example to use, if anyone is.

    Still, "Marciano gets close, he wins, simple as that" is a rather, er, simplistic comment. Care to expand on it in some form of other?

    Did any of them even win more than a single round?

    What exactly more would he have to do to impress you? Cure cancer while winning almost every round?

    Wlad was koed three times....not just stopped but brutally koed. He was koed by talents far poorer than Rocky. Ross Purtity had Wlad crying for his mother.....Ross Purity! Wlad has shown poor durability and very questionable courage. And an all time great hwt champion has no chance? Suggest you watch the three bouts Wlad lost and as you watch him fall in multiple sections ask yourself....am I watching an all time great talent? Does an all time great hwt champion lose three bouts in this manner? The answer is no quite obviously.

    Brutally knocked out, didn't make the 10 count because a range finder jab hit him clean.

    We'll see how good he is in a few years after he ducks Pulev , Arroela and Fury into retirement. I know for certin he will.

    The Rock doesn't beat a lot big HWs, Wlad is an exception.
