Rocky Marciano vs Don Cockell () - Full Fight Colorized
Rocky Marciano and Don Cockell fought for the world heavyweight championship on May 16, 1955, at Kezar Stadium in San Francisco.
Watch my Rocky Marciano Series:
12 Marciano won the fight by TKO at 0:54 in round 9 of 15. Many boxing fans in Britain felt that Marciano employed unfair tactics, such as hitting after the bell and low punches, but Cockell himself made no complaints. Cockell defeated a number of top heavyweights in his career, including Roland La Starza, Harry Matthews (three times), Tommy Farr, Freddie Beshore, Johnny Arthur, Johnny Williams, and Uber Bacilieri.1 Marciano had help that night, aided in his legal assault by the California Boxing Commission’s comic rule book and that tin-pot bureau’s interpretation of boxing’s necessary shackles.

Commentary by Rocky Marciano!
The fight was shown on closed circuit TV in 83 theaters in 59 cities.
There was a crowd of 18,000 at Kezar Stadium in San Francisco.
The contract called for Marciano to receive 40% of the net gate and Cockell 20%.
Cockell was knocked through the ropes head first at the end of the 8th round. Marciano floored him twice more in the 9th.
In his dressing room after the fight, Cockell said he got a “raw deal.“ His manager complained that the referee allowed Marciano to headbutt, hit low and punch after the bell.
In April 1956, the chief investigator for the California Governor’s special committee investigating boxing accused promoter Jimmy Murray of shortchanging both fighters and paying $10,000 “on the side“ to Al Weill, Marciano’s manager. Murray and Weill denied the allegations.
