    However the fight goes, TKO or whatever, Joe isn't going to sleep.

    Tyson hated it when people stood up to him, Frazier would stand up to him.

    I guess you are right about your ability as a topic starter.

    It takes keen insight, vast historical knowledge, and superior taste and intellect to come up with such a discerning topic as.....

    Wepner vs Inoki.

    That topic should doubtless be forever a pinned topic here at ESB in acknowledgement of the historical value it adds to the Classics section.

    I'll admit it. You're great and I'm jealous.

    Frazier will be sleeping, anyone who stood in front of Tyson went to sleep pretty quickly

    guess what happened anytime someone stood up to Tyson? They beat him. Why would this be any different with Frazier?

    You pick one thread that I put up as a curiosity [,I even named it such],you didn't mention the others and you didn't provide me with one of your examples as I requested.
    Basically you're full of **** and your posts are hero worship crap.

    The only saving grace is you dont blight his forum often with your tosh. As to your opinion of me,why would I even think that worth considering?

    Razor Ruddock stood up to Tyson and hit him with bombs that would have buried Frazier.

    Slow punching clubber Bonavena dropped Frazier twice and was never off his feet against him in 25rds.He was much slower than Tyson and didn't have his power, or defence.Yet Frazier stops Tyson?:huh


    Guess what happened when Frazier met a top puncher?:vonnecunt


    ps Want to name all those boxers Frazier knocked out cold now?:lol:

    Frazier couldn't take a better shot than Tyson.He was essentially a one handed fighter ,did not hit as hard ,or as fast as Tyson. His face swelled up like it had been in a bees nest in many fights, even Joe Bugner badly marked him up.Outside of weathering fearsome punishment in the early rounds and hoping Tyson gets frustrated and discouraged later , convince me how he wins this?

    Tyson was stopped by good boxers
    Frazier was stopped by a good puncher

    you can see who the odds favour in this fight.

    Tyson stopped a load of guys whod never been stopped before and he stopped a lot of guys much faster than Bowe, Lewis, Holyfield or Foreman did.

    I dont know who Frazier stopped.

    All this bullsh*t about Tyson losing heart is getting old. Its true Tyson showed frustration when he was being outboxed or the opponent wasnt playing ball, against Frazier Tyson will have a field day because he wont have to hunt him down

    It will be like target practise

    I think this could be a different fight, while Foreman had the outside advantage and 2 fisted attack if Joe was able to start fast and hurt Foreman early it may be a different fight, thing is Frazier had a long wide left hook but used it to the body well on the inside but on the outside his biggest hook generated from the legs up in a wider type version of the hook, in fact Frazier's version was unique and usually not taught, he could shorten it but the 2 hooks he wobbled and dropped Ali with were the wider version. Frazier would have to hurt big George early to slow down his aggression and make him think defense but with one arm as a hurt weapon it is not an easy task for JF

    Good to see someone with enough intellect to bring the subject matter back on target.
