Ali vs Marciano; The (Fitctional) Superfight

[mozfonky]

I love Stallone movies but he's kind of a different kind of dude. Very talented no doubt but some of the things he does bugs me. Him doing Rambo and then hearing he avoided the draft by teaching girls volleyball in sweden is a little off. I don't know if it's true or not, I still love his better movies and think he's a talented guy who was good for boxing.

The fight was basically done to once again show the old timers could beat the new guys. It was essentially a propaganda piece.

According to Wepner, who cashed in on these claims.

Ali would have wiped the floor with Marciano. An out of prime Joe Louis.."o he was undefeated' Yea? So was Sven Ottke..."Sven Who?"Exactly.

Think it was Duran that said something along the lines of ' An unbeaten record means you faced nobody'.

Who do you think Marciano should have faced?

That super fight video were and still is a disgrace.

Wasn't "Rocky" Ken Nortons idea? I think that's why he was supposed to play Apollo Creed.

Thank God he didn't. I don't know about his acting skills, but he's even bigger than Carl Weathers. And adding his boxing background, it would've been very unbelievable.

WTF is this shit?

pretty much all your favorite actors, whether stallone or schwarzenegger or any of the younger guys, are prima donnas who wear makeup and probably couldnt last a week without a team of attendants to stilt their fragile egos and baby them at this point in their lives. theyre a face and little more
