A prime George Foreman vs a prime Rocky marciano?

George Foreman would knock Marciano the F@#K out.

No offence to Rocky, but Foreman was an animal. An utter beast. He would annihilate Marciano.

Hi David.

Rocky Marciano was a very small heavyweight, weighing in at about 185 pounds, and being 5'10.

Joe Frazier and Marciano were similar fighters, swarmers. But Frazier was bigger than Marciano, and look at the outcome. This fight would be the same, possibly more devestating.

Foreman KO2.

I have to go with Foreman's own words on this one. In an HBO interview many, many moons ago Foreman said that if Ali had tried the Rope-A-Dope against Marciano, that Marciano would likely have broken his elbows. Foreman is a bit odd, but modesty is something he's never been known for.

Rocky wouldn't have a snowball's chance in hell. Foreman is five inches taller and 30+ lbs. heavier and a KO artist. If Marciano could miraculously dodge every KO punch for at least eight rounds then he has a shot on sheer stamina, but I don't think so. He is simply too small to pose any problem for big George.

It would be almost like Foreman vs Frazier Rocky got hit too much like Frazier Foreman hit harder than most Heavyweights

I would have to bet on Rocky Marciano.

Rocky would kill him
