    as for the Rock not having good head movement---wtf? Archie Moore with 148 knockouts said he could NOT hit Marciano AT ALL with the left hook that it was virtually impossible to hit him with his cockeyed stance.

    Walcott said something similar that it was a weird realization to suddenly see you could not land properly due to Marciano's weird stance.

    Ali liked that slapping lead off left hook (hardly a Frazier hook) but still youd call it a left 'hook' I guess---no way was Ali going to land that on Marciano. Bad choice. Rocky could slip that like an eel and deliver a rib cruncher underneath.

    He didn't. His face was always a mess and as for Moore saying he couldn't hit him, he managed to drop him alright and Moore was just an old light heavyweight. This wasn't a young Ali fighting a journeyman on the way up, this was THE heavyweight champ...

    And they seem to forget that there is a body attached to the head. I can't remember the last time I seen a decent heavyweight body puncher. Had Tua hung out with Mike McCallum he probably would have been undefeated.

    Not many fighters know how to go to the body to set up punches upstairs, they're always headhunting which is annoying.

    Massive generalisation which is unlike you Brock.

    What is interesting is watching Tyson clones with black shorts, no socks, trying to bob and weave to copy Mike’s style. It is difficult to pull off and you need skill, punching power and good timing.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Baloney! I wore socks last time. Shorts were ash-grey as well. Dont make hurtful accusations.

    You are more Rocky than Tyson, raw, crude and very rude.
