    And Marciano had power in all of his punches. He destroyed a lot of fighters with left hooks and uppercuts as well.

    I saw Frazier unable to hurt Foreman with his left hook yet Lyle and Young knocked him down several times with right hands. Marciano´s right was harder than both lads.
    I dont know why Im responding to this but ah well...

    Lyle did knock down foreman yes, and IDK where you pulled that from, that Marciano hits harder than he does, anybody sane would call you on that bull****. P4P yes I can agree he hits harder than Lyle, but then again so does tommy hearns and alot of other fighters P4P. Foreman fell against young and ali through exhaustion, you dont beleive it watch the ****ing films.

    Marciano does have a good shot against Fraizer if he fights frazier after the fight of century, he wasnt the same after it. If he caught frazier before those fights, no way.

    I also saw in one of your post that marciano was faster than frazier.... forget it

      Although Frazier fought better fighters while ln their prime, there were certain styles he couldn't deal with, whereas it didn't make any difference to the Rock.. Marciano by late TKO..

            Rocky was put down by Walcott and Moore while Joe's trouble was against Big George Foreman.


            are you blind?

            Of course Rocky took a better shot. Never EVER on ***** street.

              He was put down by Moore and Walcott.

              Frazier was knocked out by Big George Foreman (in his prime).

              Marciano never faced a 200+ pound Big Man that could punch like Foreman.

                Marciano was nearly knocked out by Tiger Ted Lowry, a light heavyweight journeyman.

                  When Ring Magazine done there 50 greatest fights not to happen, Joe Frazier vs Rocky Marciano was one of the fights they picked.

                  There outcome was, (to cut a long stroy short so to speak) that both fighters come out and have vicious exchanges, and Frazier's size and strength seem to be making it a one sided fight, and Marciano is cut from both eye's and taking heavy punishment, but knocks Frazier down with a right cross in the 4th. Frazier goes down but gets up at 9, and is glad to hear the bell. Midway through round 6 a split opens on Marciano nose and the fights is stopped.

                    Rocky got knocked down by a freaking former middleweight (Archie Moore). It took him all night of ****ing on the heads of natural light heavyweights to bring them down.
                    .
                    Now lets not disrespect Archie Moore's power cause he jumped up and down in weight. You sound as clueless as the poster your trying to put down. Archie Moore was an all time great power puncher and his right hand was a threat to anyone.




                    Moore stops the durable 6'3" Bob Baker who often weighed between 210-220+. He would not be stopped again in a long career where he took on all contenders and some very big punchers, even taking a win against a young Chuvalo.

                    As for Moore's durability. Another all time great puncher Patterson was the only other fighter to stop Moore during his extended peak and Ali got him near the end of his career. Its not like Moore didn't go toe to toe with big sluggers like Valdes either, he took shots from much much "bigger" brawlers than Marciano.
