A prime Sonny Liston would have overpowered him,.

I like Marciano he was a great fighter and brilliant to watch but he wouldn't have coped with the very best heavyweights of all time.
marciano was blinded for half the fight--when he got his eyesight back-he ko walcotts ass--if u've ever seen marciano-walcott 2--thats real evidence walcott was never a serious threat to rocky....nobody ever seems 2 mention the second fight at all
