If these two great warriors were to fight at lets say Cruiserweight which they were naturally who do you think would win?

With heart like these guys and chins as well.....I would predict serious head injuries and perhaps both of them losing a little zip on a "forever" basis..... and perhaps both of them losing the ability to excell at crossword puzzles.

Close close. The question is whether Holy could have held Marciano off for 12 rounds.

Tremendous heart, courage, determination and valor from both men. Holyfield with the better skill and speed and over all ring generalship. Marciano with power, toughness and conditioning.

The greatest Cruiserweight champion vs. one of the greatest HW champions of all time, meeting at Cruiser. Be a tough fight for a few rounds, but I can't see the Cruiserweight Holyfield handling a monster like the Rock---maybe as a HW it be closer---but not as a Cruiser.
