Joe frazier or marciano??
its a tough one, i think maybe rocky would take it in the latter stages due to his never ending stamina power
I'd go for Joe. Bigger and stronger, more skilled as well probably. Prime Joe was as adept as anyone for throwing punches fora a full 15 rounds.
Rocky gets my vote. Late stoppage due to rockys stamina and persistance.
I agree with ya bomp, also when you compare the calibre of opponents they faught aswell im not saying all but alot rockys were walking punch bags where as joe faught with the best but i guess every era has its best and worse and rocky was the best of his. what a punh the guy had wouldnt like to have been caught by one of them. GOOD NIGHT!!
without a doubt frazier, was the bigger man fought competion on another league, rocky struggled with an old louis, I love rock and he had just as much heart as anyone but so did frazier it just so happens frazier is also bigger and hits a bit harder,
Frazier's left hook would rip Rocky's head off... different level of boxer... Frazier was more skilled, quicker, stronger, and had just as good of endurance if not better.
Marciano, Frazier would get hit too much. Frazier would get out balled.Quote:

Frazier loses. He might win a decision if it went the distance, however, I think it would end like Foreman-Frazier, with Joe on the canvas. Joe would be suckered in to brawling with Rocky, and Rocky can take alot more than Joe could.
Hell yea it would!Quote:

Marciano was great and all but I think he would get his ass stomped by Smokin Joe and most if not all of the elite fighters of that era.
Joe is from a different heavier era, he would beat Marciano like Quarrey
