    He also claims 6 Frazier teeth flew into the air...despite him clearly having his mouth guard in.

    The poll above and most all eye witness testimony tell otherwise. Plus, Officially which is what counts, Frazier did not win a round.

    Could have gone either way but I gave it to Frazier by a very narrow margin. I thought that he landed the best, cleanest punches in the round (those hooks). For all of George's clumsy punching and pawing, he didn't really land much of note. Frazier slipped, rolled, caught, or deflected virtually all of it. Mostly ineffective aggression.

    Frazier lost a half dozen teeth from that punch. If you lived though that time period and followed the sport closely you would know this as fact.

    President Kennedy wasn't killed either, he actually sprouted space wings and flee back to his home world. I know the cameras show him being killed but you had to have lived through that time period to know this fact.

    What does it matter, first time he didn't get battered until he caught caught.

    Unfortunately for you just about every bit of data including this poll shows your observations are faulty. Hope you like being on the losing side. Know how to spell Blowout? Oh BTW officially Frazier lost every single round.

    It kind of matters, that he put on a better account of himself.

    Well I'm just responding to Swag's comments. This 1,000 punch number came from him not me. But I do agree it's a little ridiculous.

    Nah, he got caught with heavy stuff in Round 1 , 3, and a good right in 4. All individual punches with him moving or countering to prevent follow ups.

    And it matters since it shows a better fit Frazier could have used movement to potentionally take Foreman into deep water.
