    Well Marciano was a pretty thick set man, and it wound't be written in stone if he would of been able to cut to 175. And you do realize Marciano was a very healthy eater and always training, so it not as if he would of had alot of fat to cut, due to blowing up.

        No way Marciano could drop that much weight. Rocky Trained his ass off for every fight and in between, He always came into the ring at 100% shape.

          Recall...they weighed in 5 hours before the fight back then. Under those circumstances Rocky could only cut to 180 at best. But, under 24+ hour circumstances he could cut to 175. Some fighters today cut 20 lbs, but 10 is more realistic here since often old school fighters weren't nearly as hydrated in the ring then as they are now.
