No but seriously. Larry Holmes fought prime Tyson at 38. Holmes fought 10 more years after that. George Foreman was just shy of 50 when Briggs got that shit decision. Klitschko is 40. Etc etc.

Ezzard Charles was 32. Joe Louis 37. Archie Moore 38. Joe Walcott 38. Yes they most of them past their prime but hardly old men! Roland LA Starza 27. Don't Cockell 26.

Let's not exaggerate here. Walcott had Marciano DOWN AND OUT with HUGE POWER PUNCHES right on the button.

Round one. He should have finished him, no? Round one. Fresh as a daisy, even a 38 year old. Round one. What's his excuse? He was too old for round one? But not too old to decapitate Marciano like he almost did.
