Whose 49-0 is truly greater? Mayweather or Marciano?

Did Marciano retire for two yrs to avoid guys ?

Not to mention Floyd fought on an era where he benefited from all the advantage of advance sports nutrition and science. Can you imagine Mayweather Jr. Without the help of Xylocaine? Cryotherapy? Along with a multitude of supplements that makes athletes today perform better. Floyd had great talents and instincts but he had fragile and small hands, practically a huge advantage for someone boxing for a living. Any other era and he would be a journeyman. Truth.



Marciano fought on a stage where boxing was it's at purest form, it was almost unadulterated. The politics surrounding the sport was minimal. The dude boxed and knocked his opponents. It's just another day at the office for them.

You'd have thought the poll would be far more in favor in Mayweather the way I got steamrolled in this thread by those that voted for Floyd.

If they were the same size, rocky would lose to floyd, lol!

Not in Rocky's era....

Come on man people on here have alts and hate floyd,they will vote against him in any poll..you could have compared it to Sven Ottke

Skill-wise, im pretty sure of it, floyd would toy on rocky***128518;

True, but boxing at that time wasn't just about clinching, huggin, dodging and tagging. Floyd wouldn't last in that era.

ACtually from what I've seen there was a hell of a lot of clinching back then.

Sure, but I never said it's just clinching. Don't leave out the rest.

You're talking about the same forum where most people picked Brandon Rios to beat Mayweather.

The overwhelming ******ity and ignorance here doesn't validate anything you said.
