Now why the hell would Paxtom say it so matter of factly if it wasn't true? Has he been known to lie about actual quotes before?

If you can reference a couple of these quotes Bill that'll shut the guy up.

As for LaStarza, it isn't difficult to understand the motive behind him promoting MArciano over Clay. Since he fought the first fight with Marciano basically even, by claiming Rocky could have smashed him up easy, implies that LaStarza could have done similar as well, thus promoting his own image.

Old Roland would be Rollin in his grave if he seen this, but he ain't the first boxer to sledge another to promote his own legacy and he certainly wont be the last.
