    I did not realise that Rocky as losing the second fight against Ezzard Charles, I know he had the horrible cut on his nose. I know Rocky was behind against Walcott.

    Marciano was way ahead on points but the ref was going to stop the fight after round 7.

    Recently, Alvarado's come-back against Breidis Prescott on the undercard of the Manny Pacquiao versus Juan Manuel Marquez III fight should be mentioned. Alvarado was down on all three scorecards going into the final round by quite a few rounds and knocked Prescott out in that round.
