    Dubois 6’6 255 pounds vs Frazier 5’11 200 pounds

    Dubois punches just as hard as Foreman but hes way bigger and more talented Would Dubois do a Foreman on Frazier?

    Unfortunately yes. Also despite the massive size advantage im sure Dirty D would also foul the much small Smoking Joe heavily.

    Why is Dubois considered more talented than Foreman ? Am I missing something here ?

    Foreman has a better jab.

    Better at cutting off the ring.

    A better variety of punches

    Dubois would be dangerous for Frazier due to his power and size.

    But he isn't anywhere near as durable as Foreman.

    The few solid left hooks Frazier did land on Foreman had 0 effect on him I don't think you could say the same about Dubois.

    Foreman was only dropped 4 times in over 80+ professional fights.

    Also where are you getting 255 from ?

    Dubois has been as low as 233 against Usyk in their 1st fight his weight goes up and down.

    Frazier's weight was 205 vs Ali and he could weigh up to 210+ pounds.

    Frazier would be like Joe Joyce x10. Dubois would be lucky to reach 6 rounds against Smokin' Joe.

    Dubois might fold under the pressure if Frazier could keep up the intensity

    Reality is that Frazier would be seen as a blown up cruiserweight these days.

    why do you think he punches harder? he landed big shots wardley didnt see coming and didnt score a single knockdown. standing tkos against miller, wardley. the only fight ive seen where he looked like a real destroying machine was joshua and he has a paper chin and fought the worst fight in the history of boxing. george foreman would barely land with glancing blows and people would start doing a dance and their faces would change color. why do you think dubois punches harder? also, why more talented? you can time that stupid little bounce he does

    Frazier's record is actually kinda thin if you inspect it critically. His best win is a UD vs Ali, and the remainder are B-tier wins here and there. He never fought Norton, Lyle, Shavers or Jimmy Young either.

    Frazier had a big punch, but (imo) he's way overhyped.

    Foreman's punches didn't put down Jimmy Young or Ali. The majority of Foreman's 70's opponents were C-tier and weighed less than cruiserweights.

    Comparing Foreman's opponents to these iron-chinned superheavies is a moot point too, imo.

    george hurt jimmy young early in their fight. he landed a big left hook and young staggered away while looking at the floor and wiped his nose even though it wasnt bleeding. he got warped into a different solar system for a few seconds. for ali, george never hit him clean on the chin. i think him not stopping two slick cagey boxers is a moot point. maybe the fight with gregorio peralta is more in line with what youre saying because george did hit him clean

    A big puncher like Foreman should've just (imo) blasted Jimmy Young away. Foreman did hit Ali clean on the ropes a few times, but I guess you can chalk up his ineffectiveness to being exhausted.

    Peralta is another one of those undersized heavies Foreman padded his record with

    Foreman's record is actually kinda thin, imo.
