==BOB BAKER VS HURRICANE JACKSON FIGHT REPLACEMENT FOR MARCIANO-BAKER FIGHT:==<br />
<br />
On historic night on February III 1956 in new york, Well over 4000 people were in attendance. Originally Rocky Marciano (49-0) vs Bob Baker were to fight this night @ 11pm![http://encyclopediasupreme.org/norrisweillmarciano2356] Only heavyweights were allowed to fight on this night just like on September 21 1955. Jackson won by the slimmest of scores. If Baker had won the final round, the bout would have been a draw. This fight ended very impressove Baker's 13 consecutive winning streak. Jackson scored an upset by taking an unpopular split decision from Baker, who was the only logical contender left for Rocky Marciano's heavyweight title. Baker was wold's top rated fighter from from April 1955 to February 1956. He was real heavy weight for any era. He was 220lbs 100kgs, 6'2 188cm. At the time, Archie Moore was returned to the rankings as light heavyweight champ by the NBA, however The Ring magazine still considered him the light heavyweight champ.<br />
<br />
The bout was broadcast live on national coast-to-coast TV and radio!<br />
