Yeah, well it helps to not have to worry about really hard hitting opponents,... He faced a total shell of what he once was Louis, and one of the best Light-Heavies in history. Pease tell me if he faced anyone who could punch with even close to the power of a Cleveland Williams, or a Sonny Liston, or a Joe Frazier, hell, even a Max Bear? LaStarza maybe??? He's vulnerable to criticism because of who he faced, which was just his poor luck. I haven't a doubt that he would have fought those guys if they were available during his time, but they weren't. I'll grant him this, there's NO ONE who had his level of stamina,... The guy was freak of nature as far as how much gas in the tank he had,... NO ONE else could fight with what seemed like MORE energy in the last two rounds of a fifteen round fight than they had in the first two, NO ONE.

That's what made him so dangerous. He just threw bomb after bomb.

Ali had the ‘50’s in the rear view mirror (many social changes/attitudes, slow, yes, but WERE occurring). Sports science, medicine and just economic popularity was booming-also constantly evolving. AND he was a preceding Olympic amateur as well. Even by just fifteen YEARS (ending WWII), this country had changed drastically.

No, turned pro at 24

It is rocky a beast …. But

He can’t compare him to Ali . Rocky fought a lot of old men . Ezzard Charles is one of the only his age . Charles w Ent through a lot of ring punishment when fighting rocky . No excuses for Charles , but I’m just saying . Just cause rocky only had a small amateur background . Doesn’t mean anything . If any l thing it save rocky from wear n tare on the body

Marciano could train 1000 years but prime Ali would still crush him. Since Marciano struggled with light heavyweight Charles who was a good boxer, but was smaller weaker and slower than Ali, what makes you think he'd do better against Ali?

@Samantha Lavery Medici.. Thank you for letting me know. 👍

I kind of get tired of this argument that Marciano couldn't compete against a modern day heavy weight. I mean, so what. These modern day heavy weights couldn't have existed back then either. The USA had just had a ten year depression where just existing was difficult. No one was over weight and it wasn't unusual to not eat meat for days and weeks. My dad's family lived on a chicken ranch when the depression was in full swing. They had chicken every day for 3 years. To the day he died in the late 80's my uncle wouldn't eat chicken. They could afford to buy food and no one was buying their chickens. Then they went through WW II. That is what many of them were doing so their careers had major gaps and continuity issues. Rocky didn't start fighting pro until 1947 and 23 years of age. He was an old man when he started. You simply can't compare boxers of different eras. It makes no sense.

@@bryanwhitton1784 There were tens of thousands of men the same size as Jess Willard throughout America and the World but sports were not popular back then. And you can compare and we do compare boxers of different era's!!! That's why there is an All Time Great Top 10 Heavyweight list,, correct???

One would think since Marciano was only 185 that he would at least have faster hands than the true Heavyweights right? But Maricano had the slowest hands I've ever seen on a boxer.

@@blackDavid-n-mexicaliMargotm excuse me? Have you ever seen the joe Louis fight? His hands were lightning fast. Rocky Marciano is what you call a patient, steady fighter, he applies just the right amount of pressure and punches, steadily, and doesn’t waver in output. And does so the whole fight because of his insane cardio. Also like Joe Louis, neither one rushed there shots, they cared more about the quality, and timing of the punch rather than the speed. It’s the impact that matters, not the speed of journey to the impact. And there’s a reason the rock is undefeated lol

Walcott was 37 and 38 in his two fights with Rocky. Charles wasn't just two years older but here's the point with him he began his career as a middleweight then he moved up to light heavy weight .Rocky was a natural heavyweight. If the skill set are the same or close weight wins all the time Archie was 41 years old and he was another blown up light-heavyweight who originally began his career as a middleweight.

@@jamesbaka1206 Joe was shot that fight

and Moore was bigger than him, as were nearly all his opponents.

Can't agree with you there,... Most of the time Charles had no problem hitting Marciano,... dozens of clubbing short left crosses, plenty of right leads,... The thing that is most impressive about Marciano is that he WALKED RIGHT THROUGH THOSE PUNCHES like they were nothing more than probing jabs,... Marciano's defense was pretty rudimentary, essentially he just worked hard at presenting the smallest target as possible, but he was worthless at parrying, and just average at head movement to keep from being hit.

Now margot, you know you plegerized that.

Marciano is overrated.

@@WeednDBZ I'm afraid you don't know what you're talking about friend. Archie Moore was the Current Reigning Undisputed World Light Heavy King. He was on the longest winning steak of his entire career, would keep his light heavy belt for another 6 years and go 40-2 after losing to Marciano. Hardly sounds past it to me. Walcott had fought bums to be ranked no.1? Joe Walcott was the Current Reigning Undisputed World Heavyweight Champion. He had just taken the belt form 30 year old Charles with one of the most devastating near decapitating single shot left hooks that I have ever seen. Coming up Joe had wins over Joey Maxim, Elmer Ray, Harold Johnson, Hein Ten Hoff, Lee Oma, Jimmy Bivins, these guys weren't bums. Only Louis came out of retirement, and was on an 8 fight win steak.

Thats because 1. The maffia controlled boxing back then and forced boxers to lose to him. 2.Black fighters like Ezard and Jerzy Joe had to win like 60 fights in order to get a chance to fight for the Belt. Ezard was 7 years over his prime here, othere black boxers who beat Ezard never got the chance to fight Rocky. This only changed in the 70s, thats why from then on Only black fighters where champions, Liston , Ali ,Norton Gorge Forman...
