Could the Undefeated Swarmer deal with the Wrecking Machine, who stopped Frazier?

No way! George Foreman wins by annihilation. Two rounds like he did the great Smokin' Joe Frazier. Rocky Marciano was too small, even for the 1950s standards.

Gotta agree with ya all. Marciano was similar to Frazier in style, but slower, more hittable. Rocky's chin seemed to be better, but that wouldn't help much. Maybe not exactly the 1st or the 2nd round, yet this bout wouldn't last long.
Big George by big kayo.

Aside from the size differential, what's often gonna get Rocky beat in these fights is the fact that his gameplan was to outtough you, and outpunch you. That's gonna be a tough route to go when facing men that routinely outweigh you by 30 or more pounds, and pack a heavier punch than you.
George Foreman is probably the single worst matchup you could put Rock into.

Agree. Walking into Foreman is a recipe for disaster. Doesn’t matter if you are bobbing and weaving or feinting, he just punches right through it.
