what made marciano great was his blood and guts approach his never say die mentality. there are many fighters who were more talented than him but not as great as him.

I LOVE Marciano..but I have to agree with you...sure he was a good fighter...but is was his unequalled heart, strength and determination that won him fights....Archie Moore was better at boxing than Marciano, So was Ezzard Charles....but both got KTFO because The Rock never stopped coming at them....

I understand everyones point. What I was thinking with Rocky was that despite not having a refinded boxing ability he was still able to do what he did. He was possibly the most natural fighter, because of the fact that his boxing ability was not the greatest. That was the view I was thinking of when I typed him down.

in that case I would be inclined to join you in agreement....
