BUILDING BLUEPRINT
Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
Burnsyboy - Marciano vs ali (part 1)
- Ok let’s start by stating the obvious.
- two different eras, complete different styles and personalities etc...
- I don’t know if rocky ducked anyone...
- but he fought most the best fighters of his era.
- his styles overrated but he’s slow and lacks defence. (thesedays)
- slow headmovement and punch speed,including slow reflexes.
- but had power... (KO power AND knockdown power)
- he always found a way to win though clearly?...
- rumours say he should’ve lost afew fights...one or two...
- not enough footage...wasn’t as big back then...
- he was a small heavyweight. (cruiser weight these days)
- around 185LBS. (hardly get 175 199LBS now)
- all massive heavyweights. (super heavyweights)
- not much differance in my opinion BUT...
- here’s my thoughts on Marciano and Ali vs the greats then each other...
- Ali beat foreman. Marciano beat Archie Moore.
- Ali beat Frazier. Marciano beat jou Louis.
- Ali beat Liston. Marciano beat?
- Ali beat norton. Marciano beat?
- Ali beat bugner. Marciano beat?
- Ali beat shavers. Marciano beat?
- There was MORE better fighters overall in Ali’s era.
- Marciano lacked competition.
- But they both proved they can be champions and all time greats.
- They both overcome massive obsticals.
- Marciano would beat Frazier.
- All he had was a good left hook like it or not.
- He was just great at timing it.
- He would clinch a lot confusing Frazier.
- Throwing massive punches towards him.
- Joe would struggle getting his lunches off.
- He wouldn’t be able catch Marciano.
- Plus rocky can take a punch from joe.
- Foreman flattened Frazier easily.
- Had the power to lift Ali of his feet.
- Ali overcome this by dancing saving stamina.
- He knocked him out in the later rounds.
- Marciano vs foreman is different.
- Both sluggers.
- Both slow.
- Both robotic.
- Marciano and Ali are different.
- Rocky couldn’t box.
- But he could FIGHT.
- He used a boxing defence and fighting offense.
- Foreman could hurt rocky and possibly drop him.
- Rocky could take punches from him though.
- He wouldn’t knock him out.
- Rockys too tough for his own good.
- Foreman’s uppercuts could possibly KO him.
- That’s if he lands.
- Foreman was strong.
- But Marciano found a away to win.
- He would clinch no matter how strong he is.
- Confusing foreman.
- Taking away his strength.
- He would drain foreman’s confidence and power.
- Knocking him out in the later rounds.
- Marciano vs Liston.
- Liston was VERY slow and overrated.
- He was a gangster and feared so forget that part.
- Focus on his boxing/fighting skills.
- He was slower than foreman/Frazier/Marciano.
- His reflexes was worst than someone on the street these days.
- BUT he had power and aggressive plus intimidating.
- And he brawled always walking forwards.
- Marciano would keep moving around slow or not.
- He would clinch everytime he got inside.
- Liston was slow so Marciano would out punch him.
- Plus Marciano had (questionable) more power.
- He would lean out and land a mean punch.
- Marciano would KO Liston round 4 5.
- Marciano vs Louis.
- Louis was GREAT but lacked completion.
- Soon as he faced Marciano his heart was questioned.
- He was a warrior facing lions.
- Marciano was a champion facing warriors.
- Ali was a all time great facing champions.
- No doubt Louis would give Muhammad a good fight.
- Maybe catch him a couple of times.
- Ali had very fast hands and reflexes.
- Good defence and danced around.
- He got into apponants heads easily.
- He declared himself the greatest of all time.
- Joe would beat Cassius Clay in a tough fight.
- The Muhammad Ali version would UD joe Louis.
- Maybe if the fight is as big as we think it would’ve then...
- Ali might of gone for the KO and got careless but won the rematch in style.
- Marciano would beat norton.
- His clinching would confuse him.
- But norton had a lot of power.
- He would truly test rocky.
- But rocky was slick and had his own style.
- He was an all time great.
- Norton was more of a warrior with a lot of power.
- Rocky would find away to win.
- I think he would get a joe Louis type victory.
- BUT his face will be a mess.
- He would respect Norton’s power.
- But norton would get overconfident.
- Then midrounds end up FEARING rocky.
- Not being able figure him out.
- Marciano vs shavers?
- Shavers (questionable) hit the hardest ever.
- Marciano too (questionable too)...
- Marcianos clinching would confuse shavers.
- Shavers was strong though.
- Stronger than Liston and norton by far.
- BUT had questionable stamina as well as defence.
- Rockys defence was underrated BUT not exactly modern good.
- Rocky would take punches from shavers.
- I think marcianos greatness and presence plus will to win would get to Earnie.
- Marciano would find a away to KO him in the later rounds.
- Marciano vs bugner?
- Bugner was so motivated to actually win a big fight that night.
- He wanted prove doubters wrong.
- He wanted to make history and defeat Muhammad Ali.
- BUT apart from the motivation of fighting Ali...
- He never really achieved much to be fair.
- That was just a lucky night.
- Let’s be honest.
- But full respect for his heart.
- Heart of a champ (that night only).
- Marciano would destroy bugner.
- Ali vs Archie Moore?
- Archie’s even older style would confuse Ali.
- Give him problems.
- But his dancing and mind games would prove great.
- He would easily UD him.
- But due to different eras and styles trouble each other.
- Different ways too obviously.
- Ali would defeat him quite easily but quite close rounds.
- Let’s be honest.
- Now for Ali vs Marciano.
- Ali would dance around Marciano.
- Marciano would walk forward throwing single punches.
- Rocky would take Ali’s punches.
- Marciano would save enough stamina for the distance.
- Marciano wouldn’t land clean on Ali.
- But rocky would clinch everytime Ali come inside.
- Ali wouldn’t get his combinations off.
- It would be a scrappy ugly boring fight.
- Marciano winning a MD.
- Marcianos undefeated willingness will KO Ali in a rematch Frazier style.
- Then Ali’s greatness to overcome Marciano would kick in.
- He would be motivated to beat the greatest cruiser weight of all time.
- Best fight on his resume PLUS biggest fight in history.
- Probably make the money we do today (THAT fight).
- The inspiration Ali received would humble him.
- He would still be Ali but more confidant then ever.
- Ali would be the underdog and overcome the odds.
- He would be declared the greatest.
- Cruising a easy UD in a trilogy.
- People forgetting he lost the first two.
- Marciano then wanting a rematch.
- Has the hype builds up he dies in a place crash (R.I.P)
- Do you agree?
- Marciano was the real greatest in history?
- Forget weight classes.
- Muhammad brainwashed society.
