@mrtruthforever 4get Moore Look at the killers great boxers & overall level of competition Ali fought & compare that to the nobodies & old out of prime legends Rocky fought. Nothing against Rocky, he was a great fighter but no where close to being the among the best or even in the top 10 greatest boxes all time top 15 maybe. People just look at his 49-0-0 padded record and assume hes the greatest, but 4get it everyone has their own opinion. Marciano was great but the best ever? Not even close.

@KevinDFuller94 When Ali beat Archie Moore, Ali was 20 and Moore was 46 years old. When Rocky beat Moore, Moore was 38 and Rocky was 32. According to your logic, does it make Ali less great because he beat an old Moore (and won twice against an old Liston)? Again, a fighter fights what's available at the time he's fighting.

@KevinDFuller94 You're 17. Speak to anyone who lived when Joe Louis, Jersey Joe Walcott, & Ezzard Charles fought, they would not refer to them as soup cans. Walcott fought for the championship at 33 years old, the same age Louis was when he beat Jersey Joe in their first meeting. Walcott lost twice on decisions to Louis in 15 rounds & lost a split decision to Charles in another 15 round war Walcott, but then came back to win the next 2 fights against him until Rocky knocked him out in the 13th.

Guys I think we're forgetting how simple Rocky's fighting style was. Punch and get hit, whoever falls down loses. No matter how "inferior" he might seem in comparison with other famous fighters. He did fight 49 times getting beat-up but Won simply by hitting the other guy harder. Is he the best over? No way. Is he badass? Totally.

@jak11111100 I feel it' s very unlikely Marciano ko's Ali. I feel Ali would of had a greater chance at koing Marciano than the other way around. Ali's punching power is underrated the same way Marciano's punching power is overrated.Ali stopped Foreman, Liston,Frazier,Lyle,Quarry. Marciano s topped a punch of old farts after struggling with them. Old man Walcott had fight won, Moore at 42 hurt the ROck at end of 2nd. Put Ali in Moore'
s place that night Rock gets st opped.
@ItNice26 Rocky is 49-0-0 with 43 KO's because he fought fuckin soup cans. Ali beat Joe Frazier, Sonny Liston, Floyd Patterson, and the MONSTER KNOWN AS GEORGE FOREMAN!!! ALL IN THEIR PRIME!!! Who the fuck has Rocky fought that could even compare to George Forman or Sonny Liston??? A washed up Joe Louis freash out of RETIRMENT?!! I would love to see 5'11 185LB, NEVER FOUGHT A GREAT FIGHTER IN THEIR PRIME, ROCKY VS ANY ONE OF THE FIGHTERS I LISTED!!! ROCKY FOUGHT SOUP CANS & OUT OF PRIME LEGENDS

@KevinDFuller94 - Hey Mr. Soup Can, fighters can only fight the fighters they find themselves in the ring with. Rocky beat all his opponents, period. What more could he do than that? You'd love to see fighters box out of their eras? Who wouldn't? Comparisons are pointless. WHY SO ANGRY? Frustrated boxer?
