I know that ... ( 2 months ago by lemigod)
I know that Fighters Peak at different Ages depending on How long they have been Fighting.
Marciano turned Pro at 23,won a Title at 29 and retired at 32.But sadly his opponents were just Blown up Light-heavies who had been Boxing for so long and had peaked in their late 20s early 30s.They had accumulated double digit losses by the time they faced Rocky so they were passed their Prime and that's a fact.
If Marciano had fought an Unbeaten Fighter or a Legit Heavyweight in his 20s,but he never.
He did fight legit ... ( 2 months ago by Boxer2333333333333)
He did fight legit heavies in their primes. Rex Layne, Carmine Vingo, Roland LaStarza, Harry Mathews, Lee Savold. Fighters back then would fight on 2 days notice against top guys when they would only have about 5-10 fights. That's why they would have so many losses. The majority of Walcott's losses came before he truly turned into a big threat. He had bad management. Same with Archie Moore. Records don't mean everything.

Well so If records mean nothing then that should explain how padded Rocky's record is then.The so called Legit heavies you mentioned are nobodies anyways.

They were top contenders who would be champions now. Back then the fighters weren't protected like they are now. They would fight anyone and anybody, anytime, anywhere. That's why they would have records of like 69-10-2.
They would be ... ( 2 months ago by lemigod)
They would be champions now because this era is the worst Heavyweight era ever.
They would have been nobodies if they fought in the era of Ali-Foreman-Frazier.
They would have been reduced to Club Fighters or tomatoe cans for sure.So again your point still falls short.They are still nobodies in my opinion because the only one who remembers them is you.They did nothing significant in Boxing so that's why they are forgotten.
Sorry mate your man's Resume is very much padded.

Cooney fought ... ( 1 month ago by aqualungtx)
Cooney fought valiantly against one of the best HW champs in Larry Holmes. He took some vicious shots and lasted 13 rounds in the Las Vegas heat. I saw this fight LIVE in 1982 and Cooney was ahead on judges scorecards late in the fight as well. Holmes was at the top of his game that night also but -
Cooney's left-hook is often called one of the most powerful punches in boxing history. Foreman, Holmes, and Lyle have all stated that Cooney's blow was the hardest they had ever taken.
Gerry Cooney was a ... ( 1 month ago by richthequick)
Gerry Cooney was a polite young man and loyal friend. He didn't like running and gave his Trainer John Capobianco headaches (humorously). I haven't seen Gerry in years but remember him fondly as an average American kid who worked in a gas station and would break my biceps with his arm punches. God Bless you Gerry,

Took Earnie Shaver's best shot and still won the fight. Champion for 9 years, should have beat Marciano's 49-0 (robbed by judges) and could have beat Tyson in his prime (mid-20's).

ssalspring, siddavid, etc. etc. ad nauseum, why bring in racism? Cooney put forth a good effort against one of the best heavyweight, give him his due. I guess you can't with your warped brain.

Oh how often do u drop in and comment? I do lots of it therefore I have a feel for the other regular participants. This is an extension of a on going debate. I'm defending equality. I haven't a racial bone in my body. Not even in my warped brain. I withdraw the Cooney is a bum statement. I'm old and it was right after nap time. I do however retain the right to call Cooney a bum again. Your 19 you weren't you born? Racism is alive and well in boxing. It's unfortunate.

and Michael Spinks was a Gold medal winner and of course Heavyweight Champ and a clever boxer until he met Tyson while Mike T. was in his prime.
