I am still studying this weight and time zone , so my next post/edit may differ , yes , Marciano was a lightheavy fighting at heavy , he was smaller than Arnold Cream who briefly fought at the weight , comments will be taken into consideration .
I think my next edit/post will have Conn rated lower , and I really wanted to include Cream at the list but he just fought too briefly at the weight and was too big. Archie Moore was also a massive lightheavy who had to use anorectic methods to make the weight , if he could , Marciano could too as he was smaller .
And studying this weight/time is a problem as there is no reliable evidence (full length videos)
If I trusted newspapers and textual sources alone , I could have mistaken Hopkins for a great fighter that he isn't.
Hopkins is a mere foulist with average skills but great foul tactics.
He should have fought at MMA where he belongs , but had he met fighters using his own tactics , he may have been seen as the mere average fighter that he is.
