In their fight Louis won a few rounds, 12 years earlier he would have won more than a few rounds.
Marciano has a better chin, more stamina and he can actually finish fighters off when they're hurt unlike the BUMS that have been able to hurt Louis.
I would give Louis the edge because of his skill, speed and Marciano's wide punches. I would give Marciano the edge in his chin, power and willingness to go to hell and back for the win.
Louis was the better BOXER but that doesn't mean he would dominate Marciano, just that if they fought 5 times I think that Louis would win 3. Furthermore I think that Louis would adapt better after the first couple fights; stay away from Marciano's power and win rounds.
