      Marciano's the best heavyweight ever as far as I'm concerned. But I wouldn't delude myself into thinking he would beat today's guys.
      Yea you are spot on ,Nostalgia is hell of a drug

        But since the bubble got busted and he was shown as the bum with exaggerated power who ducked every decent boxer, they have started claiming this era of HW is a week one. LMAOO. You can't make this ****.
        So is it not a weak era? I mean, a guy you just labeled a bum, rose to relative prominence. I get the about face of fan boys you’re pointing to, but were they wrong before, or are they wrong now?

          48 y/o Foreman didn't fight anyone but bums when he came back and became a champion in the 90s after beating Moorer. Does that mean the 90s was also a weak era?

          Wilder was protected and if he hadn't been protected, he would've been knocked out years ago. The man fought nothing but bums.

            I've literally never seen anyone call this a great heavyweight era. Even when talking of Joshua, Fury, and Wilder all together the consensus has been it's another weak era with a couple decent fighters. I've seen people say it's interesting now though

              Would you call the 90s when Holmes and Foreman were in their 40s and still became champions a great era?

              People had the same sentiments about the 90s and didn't appreciate it until the Wlad and Vitali era. And it's the same with this era and the next 5-10 will solidify it.

              I just have a problem with idiots who call it a weak era because people they like aren't dominating.

                Fair enough, but Ortiz was highly rated, as was stiverne. Not an incredibly deep era, wouldn’t you say?

                      When did those two bums who never fought anyone become highly rated? LMAOO.

                      Both are Charles Martin and Breazeale level.
