      Ezzard Charles was past his prime after the Jersey Joe Walcott fight, he was on his downslide to his career. HOW MANY FIGHTS HAD CHARLES FOUGHT BEFORE TAKING ON A PRIME ROCKY?

              You can't honestly give me an answer because it would prove my point, Charles was past his prime when he fought Rock, just like every other champion.

                funny, you say "owned" like the little computer nerd that you are dispite the fact that you haven't said anything outside of ur biased opinion and have proved nothing. hell, you haven't even seen the fight, for ****'s sake.

                charles had 90 fights before he fought rocky. but if he was on the downside of his career, how is it he managed to beat rex layne, bob satterfield, and jimmy bivins before he fought marciano?

                gee, probly cuz he wasnt past his prime like you said.

                    So when Foreman beat Moorer he wasn't on the downslide? Good fighters can still manage to win past the peak of their careers. But when you put them against another great fighter in the prime of their careers they're going to get beat. So explain to me was Joe Louis in his prime when he fought the Rock or how about Joe Walcott and Archie Moore? Were they in the prime?

                    I know Rocky is your favorite fighter but you need to get a grip of reality and stop ****riding him you stan

                      louis was past his prime, but charles wasnt. walcott and moore were like hopkins, they got better with age.

                      instead of calling me a "stan" (wtf?), try and actually watching those fights on espn classic instead of basing all of ur boxing knowledge on a single website full of nothing but statistics?
