    Can you just stop being so biased man? You literally hate Frazier for no reason. Just let it go.

    It was one of those mistakes that sounded right, then when you realize it's wrong, it's far to late.

    I loved Frazier ,terrific fighter I bought his fights on Super 8mm and never missed an opportunity to watch him.

    I have no bias towards him. I wouldn't mention your mistakes except you took it upon yourself to tell me one of my posts was ungrammatical.You were wrong btw.. POT KETTLE?

    Up until the arrival of Holyfield,Tyson, and Lewis, both Frazier and Marciano made my top ten ATG heavyweight champs.
    I have a collection of Rocky's fights too.


    Anyone ever tell you, you are a fool?


    They have now.

    I may have used the word moron, and perhaps idiot, but no, I don't think I've specifically called him a fool. :lol:

    It's not showing hatred to think an ATG skilled 6'5" Olympic gold heavyweight, weighting 240lb with all kinds of power, can beat an ATG fighter weighing 35-50lbs less and giving up 5" in height and reach.

    Hate is thinking these guys would beat him.

    Mcvey? Are you serious? You know why I accused you of being biased. You're acting like I was the first person to accuse you of such things?

    What you accuse me of doesn't concern me,I haven't any regard for your opinion so why would it? I am a fan of both Frazier and Marciano ,that's why I bought both their fights ,what you choose to believe is irrelevant to me.

    You said my reasoning was somewhat clouded, despite the fact thatnumerous posters called you out on your clear hatred and contempt of Marciano, and Frazier. Was their reasoning "somewhat clouded" to?

    That Frazier might not have made it to the late rounds against Lewis, but I think Ali would. Even in '75 he had a great chin, and his reflexes were not gone. I don't think Lewis would knock him out. He might beat '75 Ali, but by dec. not ko.

    I didn't mean to imply that Lewis would have stopped Ali, merely said I think he would win by decision. So I agree with your comments.
