Thread: Timeless Classics from Long Ago

June 1935 - Madison Square Garden NYC - "This fight is one of the great upsets in ring history."

"His last great Knockout"

"Oldest Heavyweight Champ of All Time!" (in those days, anyway)

They're doing a great job bringing these fights to life! In Living Color! G-Damn Rock took a helluva left hook and got up like it was just a flash knockdown.

That 9th round Rocky-Ezzard was a brutal back n forth bombing. Damn their size, I think those shots would've dropped every HW today. So much leverage on their shots, turning it over. For men only.

Rocky Marciano took a battering for the ages against Walcott. That first round would've sparked anybody, but not The Rock.
