Hey guys, lets bury the tomahawk. Evan Rockyis not a hevyweigh on the modern scales he has it. He will be successful against some boxers and against he won't! The sad story is that boxing is diying and the new guys are not a warriors. They are not a showmans what they are suposed to be! It's not about shape,form or size, but it's about entertainmant and etnical pride. That's the problem the new guys don't have it!
Rocky Marciano, ahhhhhhh, the Rock. Did he ever fail to rise to the occasion? Behind in several fights, refs/doctors close to stopping it, he always conquered. Tough as frikkin nails, and the toughness is what would make him walk right thru just about everybody, then and now. He got WALLOPPED by Walcott all night long, look at the power JJW had even at 38, he hit harder than Holyfield or Holmes for sure. Some of his punches jolted Marciano a few inches in the air, like Foreman did to Frazier. ABsolutely BRUTAL was Walcott.
Rocky also knocked out Ali!

Walcott brutal ? he Koed 32 of 71 oponants , he wasnt a huge puncher in his day , and compared to todays fighters he would have little power.Quote:

He slao dropped Marciano with a hook, off the same move if I remember correctly. Dropped Louis twice with pretty snaky right hands.
Thats the guy! (my mind kept saying emile griffin???)Quote:

Anyway, yeah him. He carries himself in very similar way. Throws very sneaky shots like him too... James Toney didn't have shit on him for oldskool moves :)
Actually it as a bit like the "SMASH" Razor Ruddock used to throw , left hook / uppercut.Quote:
