    All of Marciano's "major" opponents had multiple losses, except Louis, who was more or less living in and out of a sanitarium at that time and was welll washed up. Pretty much like the rest of the major opponents. Don
    ****ell was the British Light heavy Champ, he had bad glandualar ailments which caused him to balloon into a heavyweight with no punch., was KO'd 6-7 times and this was only his second fight out of England in over 80 fights. He was well washed up. And all Marciano's opponents has something going against them like this.

    Of course, cong**** to the Marciano family, but nothing will change the fact that Rocky was about the worst heavyweight champion in history, with a more or less phony, built -up record of palookas.. And his manager had Mob connections. If the opponents of his opponents were looked into you'd see exactly how bad they all were. But today's lazy-guy posters wouldn't take the trouble.

    A statue 30 ft high?? King Kong was only 30 fr tall.
