    I think by the end of next year I'll be agreeing you.

    Rockys achievement of beating all his hof contenders and retiring undefeated is very impressive in my opinion.

    He was able to generate serious power at close range because of his short reach. Haha . You guys know absolutely nothing.

    I can't see him ever have the opportunity to land enough punches to force a stoppage.

    Now he's dead since a lot of years, yes it's pretty much a fact he can't compete.

    Can The Rock even reach up to 6 foot 6 with out a step stool?

    Seriously, did he have some birth defect? I have never heard of a heavyweight with a 67 inch reach? Who was the last ranked heavyweight with less than a 70 inch reach? Bad gene pool.

    Marciano can reach +-216 cm when his arms are straight above him.
    In normal fighting conditions and considering he would be crouched he wouldn't be able to hit Wlad at all.

    Atleast not clean on the jaw.

    He will never be a greater HW than Marciano. Marciano will always be ranked above him. He will only be greater to you and nobody gives a oogatz what you think.
    Nobody will remember the bums Wlad beat. He is more famous for his loses. He is also going to avoid the best out there now, so he will retire a ducker. You'll see.

    agreed

    Wlad will always be remembered as vitalis little brother who got brutally raped in 2 rounds by an old man

    marciano left a mark, an impact on the heavyweight division ... he was 49-0 undefeated and beat some legends, even though they were pas their prime ... beatin past prime legends is far superior to beating past prime BUMS like waldo does

    wlads lasting impression on boxing? crawling around the canvas like a drunk and having the worst glass jaw anyone has ever seen. only in this horrible era can pure glass can survive by back peddling and holding like a *****

    Walk down any street in Kiev, Berlin or Dusseldorf. Everyone will know of the great Klitschko brothers!

    None will recall the diminuative thalidomide child who once was the heavyweight champ of Rhode Island.

    Haye, Mormeck, Chambers, Byrd aren't heavies either

    Ali wasn't a heavy, he started off at under 200 lbs ... so did Louis

    but go ahead and wank off to waldo clinching janitors and golfers ... and still getting KTFO

    But go ahead and wank off to Ali non stop clinching a half blind guy in their second encounter and nearly quiting when his opponent was effectively blind in their third encounter.

    Those who say Wladimir sucks should be wrapped is a vine of roses filled with thorns piercing your skin allowing your blood to flow from your body dripping to the earth fertilizing the roses allowing them to grow faster and stronger as they tighten their grip on your helpless body. Then Wladimir and I will sit at a white framed glass table along with Vitali drinking tea and laughing as you scream in pain
