Rocky would not even be HIT with half of them. Cooney is A HUGE TARGET! Do you remember how Rocky would crouch and lean? Not easy to hit!
Yes I remember Rocky being a smart defensive fighter.
That is just a summer lawn barbecue Legend that he had no defenses or that his defenses were poor. Marciano was very good at slipping the jab the way he leaned back and to his right and staying on the back foot all the time and getting very low. He was definitely not easy to hit it with the jab or the left hook. In 49 fights he was only dropped twice. Once for a two-count and once for a three-count. Jersey Joe Walcott certainly hit's a lot harder did Michael Spinks
Rocky was down twice and cut up many time. Spinks would have sliced and diced the Rock like a Nutra Bullet smoothie maker.
Spencs would do No Better Than Ezra Charles did. Spancs would be a fool to get into an exchange with Marciano. I am sure punch for punch if they started to trade blows that spinks woold wither
