well ıf you mean '47 to '48 yes maybe. But guys he fought '48 onwards were legit. Vingo was no joke, he was 6 ft 4 and had all knockouts, undefeated. Rex Layne was an animal. etc...

Fight I always wonder about wsa the Cockell fight. Marciano kept clubbıng away and there was littie to no damage done. How could that be---was he pulling hıs punches?
Cockell had a strong chin.
