      yeah, ok. i guess that why conn, godoy, watcott, nova, pastor, etc. gave him a boxing lesson, huh?

          rocky marciano looked just as good in the 15th as he did in the 1st. he had amazing stamina.

            Joe Frazier hit Ali hard, clearly. If anyone thinks otherwise, watch the mechanics of both men's bodies during that punch. True, Ali was tired, but so was Joe, it was the 15th round. I think that it's more appropriate to call it the most dramatic left hook in history, not the most powerful.

            And yeah, I think it's obvious that Rocky seems to win this vote almost unanimously.

              I'll have to say Ike Ibeabuchi.

              This is a man of 230/240lbs, but was able to throw 975 punches in a 12 round fight!! He may have been able to throw 1000 punches.
              He was unbelievable.

                If Frazier and Tyson spent as much time in the gym as Marciano, then they'd be 189 pounds as well.

                Marciano's walking around weight was well over 200 pounds, but when it came time tto train, the guy worked himself out like a dog.

                  Marciano had the best stamina, the man was just relentless. But Frazier is a pretty close second.

                    I would put frazier number 3, and ali second, cause he could dance and throw punches for 15 rounds straight.
