That was my point exactly though, you mentioned that if you showed a picture nobody knows who either person is. But the name Marciano tops Sugar Ray imo. Basically the only point I disagree with you on is that Robinson is embedded in pop culture. Based off experiences I've had anyways with friends and everything who knew Sugar Ray from the Contender. And then they just knew the name Marciano was a boxer but probably couldn't tell me if he was alive or not.
Not that I've ever brought up Robinson vs Marciano but that's just the point I'm trying to make. In fact, if you ask most people who the greatest boxer is they would say Ali. I don't think either Robinson or Marciano are embedded into pop culture but maybe that's just where I'm at or my age or whatever. But Marciano is such a distinctive name and he's so revered by white people (reminds me of Coming to America) that I think he draws more viewers.
