This guy always thought he was much better than he was just because he beat an old, broken-down Muhammad Ali. He has **** to say about almost everyone. -
Holmes should just keep his mouth shutComment

There is nothing historic about Holmes saying something so ****** and classless. Marciano was only 5 foot 10 inches and only weighed in at 184 pounds in street clothes on day of the fight. He was really a light heavyweight but he ruled the heavyweights for years. Pound for pound Marciano was one of the best fighters in history. Holmes was great too but trashing Marciano was uncalled for and wrong.Comment

Marciano was P4P one of the hardest puncher of all time.
Here is the list of the contenders when he was a champion:
1. Jersey Joe Walcott (1) – 6’0” – 197 – (51-18-2)
2. Archie Moore (1) – 5’11” – 188 – (185-23-11)
3. Nino Valdez (1) - 6’3” – 210 – (48-19-2)
4. Ezzard Charles (2) – 6”0” – 190 – (89-25-1)
5. Don ****ell (2) – 5’11” – 205 – (65-14-1)
6. Rex Layne (2) – 6’1” – 193 – (50-17-3)
7. Bob Baker (2) - 6’2” – 215 – (51-16-1)
8. Dan Bucceroni (3) - 6’2” – 190 – (46-6)
9. Tommy Jackson (3)- 6' 3½” – 195 – (34-9-1)
10. Roland LaStarza (4) – 6’0” – 185 – (57-9)
He fought the bests overhall, some people said he ducked the taller contenders Baker,Valdez, Jackon...but kinda harshComment

Larry Holmes In His Prime, Would Have Blown Up 185lb Marciano w/Jackhammer Jab
Holmes was one bad dude in his prime, had a mean streak in the ring, and the hardest hitting jab in Boxing history. Larry was 6'3" 220, and would have bust apart Marciano no doubt. Not to say Marciano was not an all time great; he was. Holmes in his prime, too big, too strong would blow up a 5'10" 185lb Rocky Marciano.Comment
