I saw this on another site and I thought surely it was in jest,but the comments implied most everyone picked Hopkins to win.
I think personally that, that is a joke. I think Marciano would manhandle ,walk down walk thru and drop,stop,k.o. Hopkins.
Styles make fights and the non stop pressure style would not be coped with by Hopkins

Marciano would destroy Hopkins. Hopkins would be reduced to fighting to survive and not win. A few rounds is all it lasts.

If Hopkins turtles up and focuses entirely on defense he might last the distance and lose a UD. If he tries to beat up Marciano he gets KO'd.

I'd go with the first option.

Concurred.
