Rocky could last 2 rounds with just about anyone jt
according to Lou Duba and probably other older trainers fighters today could not beat fighters of Marciano's times. Furthermore just look at the boxing medical records of Marciano's era and of his apponents and you will be enlightened.
When news arrived of Marciano's death in the 'plane crash, Joe Louis said "Count ten over him, he'll get up"
What a brilliant qoute and i cool clicked you for it. Was one of the tuffest fighters ever.RIP Rocky.Quote:

Marciano had as much power, with a much better chin. Marciano KO 8.
As much power as Shavers? Damn, your (sic) (This requires a contraction, e.g., you're or you are without the contraction)... an idiot (an "idiot" is a mental disorder in Psychology which is from birth, but here you use it as a name-calling "ad hominem" technique to belittle your fellow poster with whom you disagree. Shavers is consider (sic) (this requires "ed" to make it a past participle or past tense... by many to be the hardest hitter ever in (the) heavyweight division. (Ernie Shavers, who lives now in Northeastern Oklahoma, was a great puncher, but Marciano would have defeated him by "his" punching power in spite of his 182 lbs.); I agree with cockney cockney and the previous poster. LOL.

marciano takes over to stop shavers with unanswered punches midway through the bout
Another problem with The Acorn is that he punched himself out regularly...Rocky prided himself on his stamina and ability to go the distance.Quote:
