"Inside the ring he was a lion, outside a lamb," was the way Walcott described Marciano. Former champ Sonny Liston said Marciano "was one of the greatest champions there ever was," and deposed champion Cassius Clay told a reporter Marciano was "the only one that would have given me some trouble." Although respected by those who fought him, Marciano's free-swinging, plodding style found little praise with the boxing experts.

"However," Marciano "once remarked after his retirement, "20 years from now fight fans will look at my record and know I fought everybody around and never lost a fight.

"This game can't be rushed. You've got to capitalize on your good shots and not let the bad ones get you down," Lunn said. And that's exactly the formula he used in whipping the thin, tiring Hill.
