what about Ali, floyd patterson, sonny liston, george foreman, joe frazier, JOE LOUIS.
its good thing but they choose the wrong person, was it more the fact marciano is white that they decided to go with him. just pointing out the obvious, due to the fact that he isnt even in the 10 top of all time HW, people like Ali done alot more charity and work outside the ring.
What a huge surprise that they would build a statue of Rocky Marciano in his hometown of Brockton...

This is good news.Rocky Marciano was not only a great heavyweight, he was a good family man with much stronger character than the rapist Tyson, the alcoholic wife-beating Louis and the childlike braggart Ali.
He gets discredited by certain people in the sports media because he was white, but in reality he was an all-time great boxer who faced and defeated all the best heavyweights of his time.
Virtually all of Rocky's opponents were taller and had a longer reach, but he had the skills to overcome those disadvantages, as well as awesome heart and determination.

Taking a shot at the character of the great champs, huh? Why no mention of the ********** pimping Jack Dempsey (who by the way was greater than Marciano?)
Is it because he was white and you just want to **** on black fighters?

Some people bash Marciano's competition when in reality he fought and defeated the best heavyweights of his era. Say what you want about their age but to have wins over Archie Moore, Ezzard Charles and Jersey Joe Walcott is a great accomplishment.
