    Marciano is all wrong for Ali
    If Ali had to choose a great champion to fight Rocky would be his choice as he would have been the easiest one for him.
    So I guess you are calling ali a liar when all ranked Rocky Marciano way way ahead of Joe Frazier. And Joe Frazier was who he said was the greatest fighter of all time after him. But when he look back on the fights and the fighters he was very clear in saying that Rocky Marciano was ranked number one of all time and May have beaten him

    Ali was being respectful to Rocky.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    If Brock should hate a post-Marciano heavyweight, it should be Larry Holmes.
    After all, it was Holmes who said Marciano wasn't fit to carry his (Larry's) jock.
    Ali was always respectful when referring to Marciano.
    But that doesn't mean he wouldn't have beat his ass in a boxing match.
