    I'm not sure what the purpose of this thread is but I watched him out-jab Buster Mathis the other day.

    Nice clip. Some of the smaller heavyweights of today could learn from him.

    I like how patient Frazier was explaining himself to such a layman like Michael Parkinson who understands nothing about boxing, and generous in his encouragement helping him understand what he was saying. Frazier shows a passion and an understanding for his unique style of fighting. You can tell he was looking forward to his upcoming fight. What a great advantage he had in recognising his own ability of doubling up his best shot as a lead.

    "If you pull back from a punch, you won't see a hook coming. That is why I hit the butterfly with so many."

    :good aint that the truth!

    at his best a fighter so focused and sharp as Frazier could make someone as fast as Ali realy pay for pulling back from a punch. Fraziers footwork was also so effective at closing down Ali.
