Would Marciano be too small for today's heavyweight division ?

Would Marciano be too small for today's heavyweight division ?

What about a highly skilled,modern fighter with incredible power, chin, hand and footspeed who happened to be exactly the same size as Marciano ? Would such a fighter be successful in the heavyweight division or just be too small ?

Very small and very limited to deal with the 6ft6+ heavyweights of today. Any of them would box him easily and KO him later.totally different weight classes. He'd even be small for today's cruiserweights.

- -Would water be too wet for today's gen, or alternately, would men be too manly?

Yesssss is the rhetorical answer to all three ???

But reality says Rocky easily makes today's heavy wt limit even without VADA vitamins...a no brainer!

everyone would be too big for him until he hits them on the chin.

If they could not get him out of there fast, his stamina would win the fight for him. Steroid galoots tire almost instantly. Then they would be his, if he can still stand or see through his cuts.

That's ok, we understand...

He was a small heavyweight back then. But heavyweights weren't small back then. They just weren't as blown up and heavy. Today's heavyweights are garbage. As soon as he starts putting hands down everyone would know what time it was. Sure he was 188 lbs in his prime but he was running 12 miles up and down hills and boxing every day. When he retired he was 255 lbs and looked like someone who would fight today. Rocky would still beat the **** out of everyone today on the simple fact that he is a different caliber of man than the guys today.

Ruiz is barely 6 feet and he dusted Joshua without even moving his head. There are pictures of Ruiz standing beside people who are 6 ft and he is neck and neck if not shorter. And Joshua was certainly more than 4 inches taller than him.

If fat boy ruiz could take Joshua's push punches so could Rocky.

Your being a registered, thoroughbred halfwit and churl, no one listens to your idiocy.

Let me explain something. The members around here who recognize your churlishness as the ramblings of a halfwitted blatherskyte, started a little private club here on the forum in an area you cannot even get into. To you, it looks like it is closed and unused. Your lies are so intolerable and unentertaining that we decided we had to get away from you, and we were given permission to do so by a sympathetic administration.

So you have a lot of fun now, over here where you are allowed to still come and no one bothers much with you anymore.

Today's heavyweights are garbage.

Tyson Fury is garbage?

Tyson Fury the best pure boxer we've ever seen at Heavyweight ... all 6'10 inches 260 pounds of him... is garbage?

Your avatar is of a guy who struggled with Azumah Nelson and pat Cowdell... whose best win came against a man half his size. But you are going to call today's Heavyweights garbage?


I am still waiting for that post your promised.
