    Although I dig 'em both a whole hell of alot, I think Rocky would have the edge over Joe. What do you guy's think?

    Look at my icon! Joe Frazier beat Ali before anybody else did. He would woop the **** out of Rocky. (Prime vs. Prime)

    Rocky could only beat Frazier like he beat Joe Louis. With a big age advantage.

      Can I get the overrated chant for Marciano please?

      Frazier is bigger, stronger, faster and hist harder.

      Please dont talk about Rocky winning this with his heart cause Frazier had just as big a heart.

        Dear Lord. Why does everyone have to get so damn defensive over this ****. Stop being ****s and give fighters the respect they deserve.

        That said, it prolly does make more sense to go with Joe. I'm gonna go with Rocky, though, because I like his two-handedness his higher work rate, his bodywork, and the fact that he was only seriously hurt twice in his career, and Joe was not only hurt, but stopped three times. Against fighters who were bigger than anyone Marciano fought, admittedly. Still though.

          As Don King would say that is Rediculosity. When Joe Fraizer beat Ali the first time, it was honestly discussed whether or not he was the greatest fighter ever. It was a debate between him and Ali, Rocky is a distant third at best.

              Ok. as the Ladies' Man would say, "Chlymidia ith a thoup, I have theen it on the thupermarket shelveth. Tha'th my opinio, and I can have that."

              Look, this is all conjecture. I dunno for a fact that Frazier would lose. To be honest, I would be even a little surprised if he won. Here's the thing: you don't know that Frazier would win. You're guessing as much as I am.

              Finally, as far as folks calling him the greatest of all-time, I'd like to point out that that proves nothing. After all, Nat Fleischer called Ketchel the greatest middleweight of all time, Joe Gans the greatest lightweight of all time and Jack Dempsey the greatest heavyweight. Does it prove that any of them were? No. It's just an interesting fact, is all.

                  Im sorry but Rocky Marciano did not have a higher work rate than Joe Frazier.

                    The rock Frasier was a slow starter and Marciano would take it to him.
