    I respect Rocky Marciano and normally defend him, when people call him overrated and ETC. But against some of the modern greats at Light Heavyweight/Cruiserweight, he would lose to most of them. He just hasn't got the skills, speed, athletism, to hang with people like James Toney, Roy Jones Jr.

    You never know who is going to win until you get them in the ring.

    Now if only Archie Moore was just a little younger and just as wise, and if Ezzard was in good health I'd like to see if Marciano could take them.

    Archie hit Marciano with an uppercut that turned his head into a merry-go-round, and out of the guys, a top flight Ezzard Charles would have the best chance of out boxing Rocky.

    Otherwise, undoubtedly I'd go with Rocco all the way.
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.
