    Um no it doesn't because Frazier has proved he could alter his style multiple times.

    My "dumb thread" is actually supported by facts whereas you are literally changing the date of the fight and expect a different result. :lol::lol:.

    Your facts are made up in your head. It was a one sided bout as per eye witnesses which included me.

    If the likes of You thought it was one-sided, it must've been pretty damn competitive. :lol:

    The fight should have been stopped in the first round. That being said, why don't people seem to see the obvious - Willard was old and out of shape. He was not the fit, young fighter who beat Johnson.

    NY Daily News June 16th 1976. **** Young
    "Foreman won every round although the Coliseum crowd cheered Fraziers every punch whether it landed or not".

    Do you know what "eyewitness" means? It means literally there, not viewing it on old grainy film footage. You'd have to be over a hundred years old to have been there personally and have any chance of remembering it at all. I highly doubt that is the case.

    You are a special kind of special.

    I watched the Foreman Frazier 2 fight live. There is more than likely no one alive who witnessed the Dempsey Willad bout quite obviously.

    You keep posting the same thing. You've posted that quote at least five times. Boy you're getting desperate. :lol:

    Um no, you said a fighter changing a game plan will make no difference despite the fact, it would make all the difference in the world. Now that you see how ridiculous you sound, you're changing goal posts, and act as if that is what I was calling you out on.

    I work with facts. You lie through your teeth like stating Frazier was the betting favorite going into the second fight with Foreman. An out and out lie. No one picked Frazier to beat Foreman. All picked Foreman to ko Frazier.

    I'm astonished that anyone could see an outcome in Willard's favour in any shape or form.
    The devastating left hook that put Willard down for the 1st knockdown decided the outcome. End of.

    A Las Vegas bookmaker made Frazier a 7-5 favorite.
