Rocky Marciano's resume sucks

[Xpert]

Ive seen some of your threads discrediting frazier.. shavers... and now marciano.

Where did I discredit Frazier? I was just realistic. I consider Frazier a good heavyweight due to his win against Ali and the fact that he beat everyone else he fought, except Ali in the two rematches and George Foreman who completely destroyed him twice... He was not an ATG, but certainly a good boxer, I give him credit for that.

As for Shavers, come on, he wasn't at all what many claim. But I bet he's a good guy.

It looks like he's making click-bait thread titles that garner a lot of replies.

Guy should be writing headlines for the NY Post

Okay...

So you start a thread titled "Rocky Marciano's resume sucks".

Then you proceed to go in full-on "damage control" mode when others start calling you out.

Just stop.

His resume DO suck, it sucks badly. But the fact that he was undefeated and had so many KOs means that he was a good boxer. He just didn't do enough to prove it, sadly.

So, Marciano has a bad resume, because he fought in a weak era, but Wlad and Vitali fight in an equally as weak era, and they're ATGs?

Personally I would rate Marciano ahead of both Klitschkos...

he was a little dwarf who beat other dwarfs and shot fighters in an era of bums, prime Tua would ko him in 1.

I think Marciano was great. There was no fighter that I heard about that he should have fought but didn't. Marciano was really just a light heavyweight yet he ruled the heavyweights for years. He often weighed in the low 180s and sometimes in the 170s and that is just hours before his fights. Since heavyweights have no weight limit he weighed in in street clothes after a good meal and drinking all the fluid he wanted. He could easily have weighed in striped down and a bit hungry and weigh 175 with lots of time for a big meal before the fight, He sure as hell did beat some great fighters. He knocked out Archie Moore, Ezzard Charles, Joe Louis and Joe Walcott. Three of them were good enough to have held the lineal world heavyweight title and all of them are hall of fame fighters. Ezzard Charles is generally considered the best light heavyweight in history and Marciano beat him in a 15 rounder and then knocked him out in 8 rounds. In both fights Charles weighed more than Marciano. Pound for pound the 5 ft. 10 inch 175-185 pound Marciano was a great fighter. To say he wasn't is the same as saying Charles and Archie Moore were not great because he KOed both of them while weighing less than they did.
