Marciano Should Retire Says Loughran in Opinion Piece
Former light heavyweight champion Tommy Loughran urges Rocky Marciano to retire while ahead. He argues Marciano, 32 in September, could be ruined by a Patterson bout in 1957 but remains near the sport’s all time greats. Patterson, 21, has ten straight knockouts. Loughran notes Marciano’s 49-0 record and two recent knockouts, while reflecting on his own storied career including battles with Sharkey and Carnera.
