    Both had lost a good bit of there prime, but were still awesome. TYson still had the great speed that he had in his prime. He just never had the great defence and fundamentals that made him such a force

    Ali had lost the speed but against Frazier he didnt seem to realise. For me he has too cocky and showbaoting too much in that fight. he may have won the fight if not for the clowning

    But TYson was no Frazier in terms of workrate especially in 1991. he couldnt put the sustained attack together that Smokin Joe did. His attack was rather predictable. He mostly looked for one shot. he never had the wide variety of combinations of 85-88

    Ritchie Giachetti was trying to get it back though

    After surviving some scary moments, Ali figures tyson out en route to a hard fought points win
