    he's kinda like calzaghe aint he?
    only he got more fights
    So because a boxer fought in a poor era, he was a fraud?

      k my bad, he aint a fraud, he just had a bad era, like calzaghe
      we know calzaghe is a great fighter, but he has'nt gotten the chance to prove it and make it fact, and it is his timing on things even though he had roy jones, hopkins, toney etc in their prime at the same time

      i did throw the word fraud in carelesly, my bad bro
      no one is deneying that they were great fighters, just bad resume(or bad era as you put it)

          I'm not sure Rocky knew what was going on even though he was rumored to be hanging around mobsters. Maybe the mobsters along with his manager possibly did it anyway.

          One story I think I posted it up on here.

              I'm not sure if you are using humor. So much variety of humor on these boards.

              Are we considering where the opponents were at in their careers or are we just using names?

              For instance:

                  Ezzard Charles was pretty darn good. Although Charles was leaving the sport he did have a solid record of 82-11 and you can actually maybe say that Rocky broke Charles down. From the first Rocky fight Charles went 10-14 over his last 24 fights.

                    Marciano fought some big names that are HOF/Legends: Louis, Charles, and Moore...but where were they in their career. You still think they were at their best?


                    And if we want to use the Pac-huggers logic, Charles was a blown-up MW
