interesting fight i came across--refreshing to watch

that is some bad-ass walloping that the smaller fighter absorbs in the very first round wouldnt you say?

Wow, I've actually never seen this before. Helluva first round. He hurt Marciano with nearly every left hook he threw. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome!

Yes he did. He basically told Marciano "I am the fucking champion, you are a fucking amatuer, I will rock you bitch, take THIS!" You'd think the inexperienced Rocky woulda folded psychologically after that beating. Those jolting shots were literally picking him up off the floor and throwing him around like Foreman did to Frazier.

Jersey Joe was built like a tank and very seasoned in that ring other than the KO he was doing well. In the return fight he was hopeless, maybe Rocky took it all out of him with that first fight.

A classic...
Marciano was in some good scraps.
His fight vs. LaStarza is one of my favorites.
