==BOB BAKER (45-5) VS ROCKY MARCIANO (49-0) ON 2.3.56, AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN!!!==
Marciano never faced a true heavyweight in the ring as a champion. Baker was true heavyweight for any era (6'2, 222lbs-188cm,100kg). Bulky 'Big Bob, the Grinder, Belt Em Bob' Baker won 13 straight fights (baker's dozen) n was Marciano's only logical challenger left. This exciting bout should have happened on February 3 1956, live on national coast to coast radio n tv. Only heavyweights fought on this night just like on 9.21.55. It would have been a nice, good bye fight for RM to his fans. It wouldnt be easy for RM. Big, bulky Baker had very good results against shorter fighters n had very fast hands. Marciano would have defeated Baker in round ten. BB would not come out for round eleven. RM would have had a golden 50-0 record! It's a real shame this bout didnt happen. It was offered to RM on a silver platter by IBC! Both fighters were in excellent condition. Rocky would have made history!!!
