Marciano Honored by President Bush and the WBC

[Dan...]

What's really disgusting is when you reveal your belief that white boxers are athletically inferior ("opposition couldn't have been good" if the white boxer won, etc.).

And the double standard is disgusting too! We all quickly condemn any anti-black racism, but we turn a blind eye or try to justify and support anything that's anti-white.

I believe we should all be treated fairly and equally, and judged by the same standards.

Did you take me off ignore? Nice work if you did, this could be a real step for us.

I am not racist Tunney, if you pay more attention to my posts you might see that.

You guys are off topic, well congatulations to Rocky Marciano, I was raised in Brockton when I was a younger kid, and Marvin Hagler is also from Brockton too....

The racism by some people against white boxers is sickening.

Rocky Marciano was a great fighter: 49-0, heavyweight champion of the world. He fought the best at that time. But if he had been 100-0, and fought on and KOed Liston and Patterson, these racists would still say he was no good.

People discredit him because he was white. Some people believe that white people are athletically inferior, so if a white fighter was/is successful, it must be for some reason other than he was good.

...he wasn't a "boxer" (which is what's popular now-a-days) he was a "fighter"...he wasn't pretty, he was plain ugly...he had no boxing skill, all he did was follow his opponent around "plodding" after them...plus he was only 190 pounds...the general rule in boxing (and all other combat sports) is "a good big man will beat a good little man"...the best KO I have ever seen is when Marciano KO'd Walcott...I'm told he was behind Walcott on all cards and needed the KO to win...and that my friend is what a true champion does, digs down deep and wins...one of the problems I have with "Black culture" is their desire to look good as all costs (watch "White Men Can't Jump") and since there is a huge influance by "black culture" on "white culture" it's not surprising that a " ugly, no talent, clumbsy ass, and plodding WHITE MAN" get's no respect...hell, Kilitchko doesn't...which is why Mayweather is so popular, he's sooooooo purty...

Marciano was good but he is beatable against alot of heavyweights..if u think about the alltime list of heavyweights..

...think about this; "a good big man will beat a good little man"...so, if he beat the likes of Ezzard Charles and Joe Walcott (who are considered some of the best of all time) what would that make him?...I'll expand on my quote a little bit to help you out; "if all things are equal, a good big man will beat a good little man"...

If Marciano fought today he would be a LHW, maybe even a SMW. Which makes what he accomplished so much more amazing.

top 5 heavy easily

I have Rocky between 10 and 5
