Marciano was only 5' 10" maybe 5' 10 1/2" and he would've made mincemeat of that big bum Holmes. Larry Holmes should've lost the decision against Ken Norton. The guys he did beat while title-holder were a bunch of the least-talented heavyweights in the history of the division: Leon Spinks, Evangelista, Ocasio, Weaver, Shavers, Ledoux, Zanon, Jones, etc. Imagine losing his title to a light-heavyweight? A guy that lasted less than a round against Tyson.
