His back was also hurting him in training....I can tell you throwing haymakers on a heavybag round after round will fuck your back up.

Marciano-Patterson would have been a GREAT fight. Marciano-Liston would have been good as well and I wouldn't be sold on a Liston victory either as I have seen Sonny beaten before buy fighters he couldn't bully and Rocky wouldn't be bullied that's for sure
