Rocky Marciano isn't great and here's why:

1. Jersey Joe Walcot had his last 2 carer fights against Rocky before retiring i.e. was past his best when he met the Rock.

2. Archie Moore was 39 when he fought a 32 year old Rocky and Archie was past his best by then as well.

3. Joe Lewis last fight was against Rocky when he was well finished.

4. Couldn't box for sh*t!

5. Ringcraft was not good in comparison to Ali or Tyson.

joe louis beat a 37 yr old man fot the title so u cant diss rocky--plus louis oppostion was practically the same as rockys. tyson had no oppostion as well--and rocky was a puncher not a boxer--he did pretty good for a guy with the shortest arms in heavyweight history

realistically i think tyson would win--but prime tyson could also flatten louis as well
