That's terrible logic, Tarver put roy down hard when Roy was past his prime. Marciano, while he has more power than Tarver, doesn't have the speed or anywhere NEAR the reach that Tarver had. I really don't know how you can compare the two.

I'll take Roy by UD.
Past his prime? how do you figure that....he just won the Heavyweight title from Ruiz, two fights earlier, and it wasn't like he ever was in grueling hard fights before, so I don't get past his prime. As for Marciano he had conditioning second to none, freakish strength and bone busting power in both hands, as Jersey Joe Walcott stated " every time he(Marciano) hit you, you had to catch your breath". Thats frightening power my man. Roy might stay away for a few rds, but eventually he would get hit by something big and Roy's chin is soft.....so you do the math.
