If he took on real heavy bob baker,he is champ 9/23/52-1/2/57. Floyd is still 21. To this day remains youngest lineal champ. Thats what counts!today wladimir has all the belts but vitali is true champ!
marciano like dempsey and roberto duran had the killer instinct. he was humble and he fought with a will and determination to break you down with a on slaught of continual punching. he fought by getting low and using his leverage for power. strong legs and power. he would have destroyed mike tyson, floyd patterson, joe frazier, and even jack dempsey-one of my favorites. a true champion!
He was everything that was wrong for a boxer to be. He wasn't graceful, or big, or very fast. He was a wrecking machine on two tree trunk legs. IF anyone wants to know where is power came from, they should study the science of kinesiology, the art of human movement. The feet and legs are the foundation. NO one, worked harder than he did before or since. In the second fight with Roland LaStarza he broke his arms; to prove a point, about the first fight. It was said that they'd given him the win.

I think it's all well and good to say 49 - 0 but a lot of the top fighters don't go for the record they go to fight name opposition and get paid. You can get millions of bucks with the right promotion and management with 15 -20 fights but Rocky only got a title shot after 5 years of fighting. Guys like Ali and Tyson were very active but had different career trajectories, that's all it's really about. He's still a good fighter but calling him the greatest of all time is a little over the top.
You should look up more about Rocky he only fought the best at his time and defeated everybody who challenged him. It wasn't about a record for him he truly believed in giving everyone he felt deserved a shot at the title a chance to beat him and he never turned down a fight against a high ranking opponent while he held the title. He has such an impressive record by the pure fact that no one that lived in his era could beat him.
Liability issues abound with that one, especially with teenagers who aren't legal adults. In an age where you can sue a coffee house for huge bucks because the coffee was "too hot" you could just imagine the lawsuits high-school boxing would bring. That said, it would be nice to teach young men how to be honorable, fair and decent sporting gentlemen in this "age of entitlement" where low blows from moral-less swine yield riches and fame.
CHAMP rocky marciano graetest ever.heart, determination ,human respect for opponents,not like ali who called frazier a gorilla ,and frazier put his own money to get the fight on.marciano best ever boxer.
Marciano was the best conditioned fighter who ever lived...he was a force...he broke bones and blood vessels..he hurt you no matter where he hit you...great heart...great power...great chin...great stamina...he would just wear you down...had no concept of pain and had no concept of losing...feared no man...he just kept on coming....champ from 1952-1956...49-0...43 KO's..put him in the ring with any fighter...
Here we are talking about probably the most determined athlete in the history of any sport. Only a fool would write off a man like this - against anyone, any era.
joe frazier took to long to knock ali down, rocky marciano with a lot less punches would have put ali down his punch was so powerfull if it connected your jaw it was timber.Put your hands in front was no use roland la starza found that out he ended up with burst blood vessels,and if you try holding that wouldn't help either that was tried also rocky just pushed you away. timber. he was too fit.
I agree and for me the other factor making Marciano the greatest of all time was that he was a genuinely good guy outside the ring as well as inside. Boxers by their very nature have historically been as famous for their booze, broads and ballyhoo as their fighting prowess and Marciano was the exception to this rule. Loyal to his wife and family, loyal to his friends, genuinely concerned about children and his community. A class act we've not seen before or since
I can't believe some of the stupid comments that I've read.
Yes, Marciano is the greatest of all time - that's not in dispute.
No, what gets me is how absolutely stupid Americans are. Most Americans couldn't pick out their own country on a map of the world - yet they have the balls to invade other countries.
God Bless America? The land of the free?
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What an all-time classic joke.
Americans are hillbillies and illiterate bumpkins.
and what has canada givin us ? oh wait the world's first legalized facility to inject heroin and other drugs. they made it so the canadians would stop mixing thier heroin with water from the puddles and sharing. good luck mate america suxs but atleast were not canada. that's a quote from obama btw
People insult Rocky's opponents, and sure, a few were over the hill. But the fact is he fought everyone there was to fight in the '50's and no champion can do more than that
@chunkyscotty Rocky dealt with what Vlad and Vitali deal with today. A lack of equally talented Heavyweight contenders. Although David Haye could change that. We'll see.
A great man with honor skill, sense of purpose and a humble down to earth man with all the qualities of the true champion he was RIP Marciano and Louis had it right when he said God had a beauitful day when you came back !!
A granite chin, unbelievable heart, endurance and phenomenal knockout power - you can have all the skill and technique in the world, but how do you stop that power and pressure for 12 rounds? Eventually you'll wear down and get caught.
Boxing was, if anything, a lot harder back then. More primitive, style-wise, but much harder. 15 rounds to a championship-bout instead of 12, and as long as a boxer could stand up, the fight was good to go.
Also see how often, when someone dodges deep, their opponent simply hit them in the back of the head? Things like that was all part of the game back then.
Marciano fought everyone there was... some more than once, so spare me the silly remarks about "bums" and "dodging fights".
great champion! great ambassador for the sport and a true gentleman!
need more like hime
he would have pissed on the likes of lewis and holyfield and he would have beaten tyson! watch the mans fight awesome. my opinion if u dont like it dont read it
Now im not going to pretend i know anything bout boxing, but if tyson was in rockys era, or vis-versa, then the training and fitness systems would be the same. So it cant be said which is better, coz if they did fight, it would be under the same term, ie if rocky fought when tyson was champ, who knows what kind of great conditioning he would have with more modern techniques
marciano was d best did not care about his blood he new he wud get hit a lot in the fight however he wud take all u cud give then he smashed you all over arms head body an broke your will to fight the very best ever in my book rip rocky.
people don't realise that Marchegiano had one of the shortest reachest ever for a heavyweight, to win and remain defeated with that relative handicap is tough in itself
Like i said, when tyson was competing there was lots of competition, lennox lewis, evander hollyfield etc, list goes on. Marciano was good for his era but in the present day he would not have been as successful.
you should watch guys like archie moore, Ezzard Charles, Jersey joe Walcott, Joe Louis, Willie Pep, and the great Sugar Ray Robinson before you say that boxing was not advanced in that era, whilst i agree sport science has moved on since that era the skill of boxers currently is diminishing.Tyson himself was a boxing historian who revereed and respected the all time greats.
Rocky never fought Sugar ray. but yea there were a few exceptions like sugar ray himself, the guy was a machine but i still dont think marciano would have been tough enough to be in the ring with people like foreman.
boxing was tougher in those days than now and marciano was known to train hard as hell and you can tell buy the way he is always punching and pushing forward
We can't be objective in sports. Each athlete has his own time, epoch, and reign. It's like compering Bill Russel (and Michael Jordan.A five-time winner of the NBA Most Valuable Player Award and a twelve-time All-Star, Russell was the centerpiece of the Celtics dynasty that won eleven NBA Championships during Russell's 13-year career
the man was italian american why do u sad faced muppets need to turn every discussion in this site into a foking culture war or race riot? none of u will go out on the streets and start anything. like me u are sitting on your couch watching vids on the internet. u will not gain the self woth u vicariously seek by living though other peoples lives. its just does not work that way.
enjoy the vid and get on with your sad lives,please.
no it wasnt real, it was a film made in the 80's that rocky and Ali took part in, and they also used a computer with stats of both fighters to simulate who would win, rocky won with a ko in the 13th round if i remember right.
Sorry bro, it wasnt real. You can go to Amazon and buy the rest of this Marciano documentary and it explains all. Ali in his prime would destroy Marciano.
No one said he wasnt white, but ww1 and ww2 was a european battle of white supremacy. Hitler lost, and so did Italy after they invaded Ethiopia. But Italy was seen as less superior. Thats why the English get beat up when they go abroad causing trouble with their football hooligan behaviour. Italian police beat them, and have to put them in their place. I havent seen an Italian President. Rocky may be cool cos he was the Champ, but he retired his father from being a slave in white America. fact
of course it was seen as less superior at that time-- its a small country that means less troops less money less supplies for war less man power to build new tanks or stuff like that -- this says it all-- they invaded Ethiopia....all the countries they could have invaded -- why not Great Brittan ? because they wouldnt have been able to pull it off -- even hitler didnt invade brittan
He was a caucasian, yes, but he was an Italian, meaning not pure white like the Aryans. He was not an Angles , or Saxons. And his real name, was Rocco Marchegiano. White people see themselves as superior to their less white Italian brothers, although both of them are the sons of Japheth. Infact Italians have black blood in them from the Moors, and Carthagians. Fact.
I'm not saying he's not Italian of course he is. But he's an Italian American. Stallones parents are Italian but he's also an American an Italian American. They were both born in America. You guys are crazy lol.
No. Rocky Marciano was Italian. He was an American citizen. And he cried when he beat his hero Joe Louis. He wasnt a racist like a lot of people who support him. And Rocky Marciano was his American name, not the name on his birth certificate. Anyone who says otherwise want Rocky to be pure white so they can claim him. Read between the lines of what some of these Devils are saying. No. Rocky was Italian, not English American, or Irish, etc. His mum was Italian, and so was his dad. Face it.
No. Rocky Marciano was Italian-American. He was born in America with Italian ethnicity. His parents were born in Italy. THEY were Italian. He was not a racist like a lot of people who DO not support him. Italians are caucasians. Caucasian is a race. Italian is a nationality. Rocky was a caucasian. Face it.
he grew up in the U.S. not in Italy end even if his mom and dad are from italy that doesnt automatically make him raciest or his parents raciest his parents were most likely just 2 people among millions of italians who had nothing to do with WW1 or WW2 obviously his parents didnt hate the U.S cause they left italy to come here -
lol... this is a funny conversation, I'm 1rst generation Canadian, parents are both Italian, I consider myself Canadian.... but very proud of my roots and where I came from. The same way anybody else would feel probably, including Marciano. Technically speaking, where your born is what you are but its not where your from... you need to look at your bloodline to figure that out.
Dam i just came back from seeing some youtube videos about ufc, mma and that cain of stuff, i dont know why i got there, i guess i was curious about the all thing, i didnt like it, i saw that any guy can win a fight over there, also i watched a bunch of guys with no technique, a couple of bumbs who just became fighters, worried about their tattos, hair collor, their entrance, jewllery, and how their shorts look like, again, am glad i came back to this, the sweet science, the soul of the sport.
what?? hes 100% italian, y does everyone think hes american??? he even looks italian & im positive hes italian, i would tell u the reason, but u wouldn't believe me so yehhh
Marciano and his brothers and sisters are 1st generation Americans because they were born in America. Their kids would then be 2nd generation and so on.
he is italian because his dads or grandfathers italian.but he can born in america and live there.but its not make him american people. he is italian :)
it's good how they play the video with american flag, what about the italian flag. marciano was a great fighter, not as great as louis or ali, but he was very good, but he was born from italian parents, not american parents. trust america to try and take the credit.
You're an idiot, the United States gave him that chance, what did the italians do to make him a boxer? Boxers arn't born they are made, and he was made into a boxer in the U.S. You're amazingly fucking stupid.
you are an idiot, should we use the african flag for our african american athletes, or does this only go down from one parrent? what are the rules buddy since you seem to write them?
that's like saying white americans are european americans, only one true americans and that's native americans. anyway all i'm saying is rocky is italian by blood. nothing wrong with that, it's true. some can't handle the truth. going by all my minuses, it seems you got some sad individuals on here who can't admit he's actually italian. why not?
Okay but you want him and other americans to represent him as an italian, when he was born and raised in the US, with our culture, he is american with italian descent, i am of latin descent, but I am very proud to be american, i was born and raised here, and if i ever did anything that made me famous or important like rocky marciano, i wouldnt want people to label me as something i am not, and i possibly know nothing about...... Anyways you are entitled to your opinion, so are others.
i'm not the one calling other peoples opinion stupid. i know rocky is an italian american, but i'm sure rocky knows abit about italian culture considering both parents come from italy, it's not like one of them came from america, they're both italian, so by bloodline he's actually 100% italian.
personally i don't care, he's nothing to do with me, but theres alot of arabs, chinese, and whatever that aren't regarded as american if they have parents that aren't even american. i thought bloodline is what makes your nationality, so if marcaino had one parent that was american then fair enough, but two italian parents for me makes him italian by blood.
Obviously yeah, by blood he descends from italians... but what exactly makes you so certain that his grandparrents didnt migrate to italy and werent from..... yet.... another country? see where im getting at?
doesnt really matter, in the end, he is american, his kids will be children of an american, or whats your thought on that? lol
so everyone born in america is american even if they don't have american parents?
would marciano be more american than a person who wasn't born in america, but had one parent that was american in your opinion. i personally really don't care, he was a very good fighter, and that's what matters. to me though it's all about bloodline.
dude!!! get over it!!! fine, u can believe what ever you want but rocky marciano is 100% i mean wtf!???? i rlly wanna tell u the reason y i KNOW hes 100% italian but NOBODY believes me! so jst get over it
robert DeNiro...not sure what year it came out but he's young and does a great job. Its called "Raging Bull". but he doesnt play rocky he plays Jake La motta
he wasn't that slow... he was sooo putting it on. i think people that stereotype boxers are very naive. he was a winner, didn't like to lose. it wouldn't matter if the other guy was better than him, he would go at until the very end
Marciano suffered with back pain that was the main reason for him retiring. He didn't turn pro until he was 24. If he had started younger then obviously he would have had a longer pro record.
theonlysaltspring ,i did watch that cooper fight and the bell DID save ali. you can clearly see ali in the corner looking up at dundee saying "what happened! what?what?" and his corner was trying like hell to smack some life back into him. he did clear his head and take care of business but to say that the bell didn't save him is to deny reality and reason. he walked a straight line? lol! so what! again,you dont know shit about boxing! obviously,you aint one.
yeah that was 63. Saw that fight live. Also saw the Ali foreman fight LIVE. Hey u were just been born around then. My fighting was confined to the streets. There was no ref, no help, no one. You were literary defending your life. That's what I did and after many beatings as I grew into my twenties I was good by the time I got to my thirties I was a conditioned seasoned street fighter. Now boxing ..that distinction goes to my grandson ,a fine amateur with a big punch. Ali was he stunned so what?
heck of a nice guy though and non tougher..just not the greatest ever...and I hear a lot of that. Many here on utube think he was the greatest. IMO that distinction goes to SRR.
Marciano certainly had the greatest will to win. He throw so many hard punches through a fight he just broke people down.
For me, Ali was not the greatest. He was the greatest personality, but look at his record- he nearly got knocked out by Cooper- the bell saved him.
Frazier beat him. Norton beat him. I believe Foreman would have won a rematch- you can argue he lost years of his prime due to Vietnam and I'd agree, but he wasn't as dominant as people are lead to think.
go and watch that Cooper fight....Ali walked a straight line back to his corner and was up in three seconds. Time has shown Ali had a chin of steel. He was green in that fight and a quick learner. Champs don't fall out of the sky. They learn. A green Ali get tagged ...so what? Nice left hook by Henry though.
How do you figure that he quit? He retired for various valid reasons, there was no-one left worth fighting so to say he quit is incredibly stupid. People mention Patterson and Liston, but they were not on the radar at that point. Do you enjoy watching the likes of Evander Holyfield and Ali going on way past their peaks and getting their asses handed to them by guys they would have beaten easily in their prime? Do you have to go out on your shield to prove you are a warrior? Marciano had brains.
Not to me. Very suspicios that he didn't go 50 and 0. I mean pick ANOTHER wash up and ko him. It's human nature to round things off. Anyway ..best of his era
What the hell is Marciano's Sister on about? 1:23 - "They'll never been another Rocky Marciano" what about Muhammad Ali? He is without a doubt the greatest Boxer that will ever live and he would have whooped Marciano!!
blackbelt42boxer : It's my opinion that Muhammad Ali is the greatest Boxer of all time and you have your opinions so don't tell me shit and jog on you mug!
true its my opinion, but it's also ur boy ali's opinion that robinson was the best, lol n dont even say ali was bein modest because we all know he was not a modest man
Are you an idiot or something? She's not saying there won't be another great champion or fighter. Just talking about the things that made Marciano unique, like there won't be another Ali. They're their own but Rocky had a lot of tremendous qualities. There will never be another Rocky Marciano... you dam straight.
I think she means somebody like Rocky who didnt have that much athletic ability to go as far as he did. He got everything out of what he had. To go undefeated was incredible.
Marciano was maybe the best conditioned heavyweight in history. He woud go away for 6 months and train for a fight. Watch some film of him and see the # of punches he throws its unreal.
Not to mention today's joke called boxing with its lethargic, heaving tow trucks fed all types of steroids and powders. Irony is they run out of steam after the first round and the number of rounds in that era were more as well comapred to today's poor standard. Boxing is an art and no matter if you big lumerbing ox get a hit from Marciano you'll go down
He had a hit that broke bones and one of the most muscular fit bodies in the history of boxing. Lets not also forget he never pushed weights fearing that when he did it slowed him down because he bulked up quickly.
For all the bullshit that Marciano fought weak opponents this and that- I would love to see any of you sad chumps last two minutes and one round with the guy.
I think that Ali was an amazing fighter definatly the fastest Heavyweight to wear boxing trunks, but the difference is that in Rockys time they fought for little crappy amounts of money taking a beating for peanuts as some would say i Ali's time they already had many promoters like the very famous Don King so theyy had a lot more money to win in the end result and in Marcinos time they did not care how fast you hit it was how hard you tried.
Marciano - metaphor and symbol of unrelenting, unstoppable force, any era any sport, for all time. 49-0. The rest is sheer speculation and smoke circles.
The first few seconds of the video, Rocky was 41, or so; and maybe 260 lbs. walking around weight? Where was all the great heavyweights in the early "50's?
Rocky was unbeatable, one reason why he was never in fact beaten. This man was just something else. Never been anything like it either before or since.
Rocky was the greatest... of HIS time. Not of all time. So he didnt lose. That's impressive, but who did he fight that would have proven his greatness? A beat up and old Joe Loius? There can't be a greatest of all time, only THIER time. He would have to fight Ali and Tyson in his prime in order to determine his greatness. But guess what... That's impossible. Great fighter though. I hope he's in the new Fight Night.
In the 80's they made a video about what would happen if Marciano and Ali ever fought. Marciano wins in the 13th round after getting knocked down twice. If anything i should be supporting Ali (being a Muslim). It's easy saying he beat the over the kill gang but the fact is he is THE ONLY heavyweight that retired EVER. There is no such thing as "in his time" a figter is a fighter regardless of the era he fought in.
there is such a think as "in his time" john l Sullivan certainly wasn't the greatest boxer of all time but he was in his.
Your logic is very stupid seeing as you think that since a computer came up with the result it must be correct - if they are so accurate why wouldnt people use them today for betting purposes.
The greatest boxer ever. The ONLY heavyweight to retire undefeated. Everyone makes excuses for other boxers losses Marciano needs no excuses. 49 fights 43 KO's. What else can you say?
Ali was the greatest of all time he had the best chin r u forgetting the iron chin he has he annihlated sonny liston twice beat george foreman won the champion when he had signs of parkinsions dont compare any one to ali he was invincble in his prime he would rope a dope marciano r u forgetting foreman and liston possisbley hit harder den rocky listen rocky louis demspey jack johnson sulvian baer were all great fighters but none would comptete with the great ali no body touched dominated the sp

People insult Rocky's opponents, and sure, a few were over the hill. But the fact is he fought everyone there was to fight in the '50's and no champion can do more than that

Biased or stupid people insult his opponents. Also, his opponents were not that much older than him.

@chunkyscotty Rocky dealt with what Vlad and Vitali deal with today. A lack of equally talented Heavyweight contenders. Although David Haye could change that. We'll see.

A granite chin, unbelievable heart, endurance and phenomenal knockout power - you can have all the skill and technique in the world, but how do you stop that power and pressure for 12 rounds? Eventually you'll wear down and get caught.

Boxing was, if anything, a lot harder back then. More primitive, style-wise, but much harder. 15 rounds to a championship-bout instead of 12, and as long as a boxer could stand up, the fight was good to go.
Also see how often, when someone dodges deep, their opponent simply hit them in the back of the head? Things like that was all part of the game back then.
Marciano fought everyone there was... some more than once, so spare me the silly remarks about "bums" and "dodging fights".

Now im not going to pretend i know anything bout boxing, but if tyson was in rockys era, or vis-versa, then the training and fitness systems would be the same. So it cant be said which is better, coz if they did fight, it would be under the same term, ie if rocky fought when tyson was champ, who knows what kind of great conditioning he would have with more modern techniques

you should watch guys like archie moore, Ezzard Charles, Jersey joe Walcott, Joe Louis, Willie Pep, and the great Sugar Ray Robinson before you say that boxing was not advanced in that era, whilst i agree sport science has moved on since that era the skill of boxers currently is diminishing.Tyson himself was a boxing historian who revereed and respected the all time greats.

No one said he wasnt white, but ww1 and ww2 was a european battle of white supremacy. Hitler lost, and so did Italy after they invaded Ethiopia. But Italy was seen as less superior. Thats why the English get beat up when they go abroad causing trouble with their football hooligan behaviour. Italian police beat them, and have to put them in their place. I havent seen an Italian President. Rocky may be cool cos he was the Champ, but he retired his father from being a slave in white America. fact
truthhitmanisback 2 years ago
of course it was seen as less superior at that time-- its a small country that means less troops less money less supplies for war less man power to build new tanks or stuff like that -- this says it all-- they invaded Ethiopia....all the countries they could have invaded -- why not Great Brittan ? because they wouldnt have been able to pull it off -- even hitler didnt invade brittan
sensukedbz32 2 years ago
He was a caucasian, yes, but he was an Italian, meaning not pure white like the Aryans. He was not an Angles , or Saxons. And his real name, was Rocco Marchegiano. White people see themselves as superior to their less white Italian brothers, although both of them are the sons of Japheth. Infact Italians have black blood in them from the Moors, and Carthagians. Fact.
truthhitmanisback 2 years ago
"White people see themselves as superior to their less white Italian brothers,"
That is a racist statement in itself.

No. Rocky Marciano was Italian. He was an American citizen. And he cried when he beat his hero Joe Louis. He wasnt a racist like a lot of people who support him. And Rocky Marciano was his American name, not the name on his birth certificate. Anyone who says otherwise want Rocky to be pure white so they can claim him. Read between the lines of what some of these Devils are saying. No. Rocky was Italian, not English American, or Irish, etc. His mum was Italian, and so was his dad. Face it.
truthhitmanisback 2 years ago
No. Rocky Marciano was Italian-American. He was born in America with Italian ethnicity. His parents were born in Italy. THEY were Italian. He was not a racist like a lot of people who DO not support him. Italians are caucasians. Caucasian is a race. Italian is a nationality. Rocky was a caucasian. Face it.
rifleman522 2 years ago
he grew up in the U.S. not in Italy end even if his mom and dad are from italy that doesnt automatically make him raciest or his parents raciest his parents were most likely just 2 people among millions of italians who had nothing to do with WW1 or WW2 obviously his parents didnt hate the U.S cause they left italy to come here -

Okay but you want him and other americans to represent him as an italian, when he was born and raised in the US, with our culture, he is american with italian descent, i am of latin descent, but I am very proud to be american, i was born and raised here, and if i ever did anything that made me famous or important like rocky marciano, i wouldnt want people to label me as something i am not, and i possibly know nothing about......

i'm not the one calling other peoples opinion stupid. i know rocky is an italian american, but i'm sure rocky knows abit about italian culture considering both parents come from italy, it's not like one of them came from america, they're both italian, so by bloodline he's actually 100% italian.

personally i don't care, he's nothing to do with me, but theres alot of arabs, chinese, and whatever that aren't regarded as american if they have parents that aren't even american. i thought bloodline is what makes your nationality, so if marcaino had one parent that was american then fair enough, but two italian parents for me makes him italian by blood.
miketyson1973 2 years ago
Obviously yeah, by blood he descends from italians... but what exactly makes you so certain that his grandparrents didnt migrate to italy and werent from..... yet.... another country? see where im getting at?
doesnt really matter, in the end, he is american, his kids will be children of an american, or whats your thought on that? lol

so everyone born in america is american even if they don't have american parents?
would marciano be more american than a person who wasn't born in america, but had one parent that was american in your opinion. i personally really don't care, he was a very good fighter, and that's what matters. to me though it's all about bloodline.

Marciano certainly had the greatest will to win. He throw so many hard punches through a fight he just broke people down.
For me, Ali was not the greatest. He was the greatest personality, but look at his record- he nearly got knocked out by Cooper- the bell saved him.
Frazier beat him. Norton beat him. I believe Foreman would have won a rematch- you can argue he lost years of his prime due to Vietnam and I'd agree, but he wasn't as dominant as people are lead to think.

In the 80's they made a video about what would happen if Marciano and Ali ever fought. Marciano wins in the 13th round after getting knocked down twice. If anything i should be supporting Ali (being a Muslim). It's easy saying he beat the over the kill gang but the fact is he is THE ONLY heavyweight that retired EVER. There is no such thing as "in his time" a figter is a fighter regardless of the era he fought in.
