    We all know Big George is all wrong for Smokin' Joe and would probably beat him 10 out of 10 times. But, what if we took the best version of Frazier that ever existed and matched him with the version of Foreman, that had some troubles getting Qawi out of there getting hit a lot in the process.

    Can Joe Frazier win it?

    Frazier would have a chance as this version of Foreman was definitely slower and less explosive--but peak Frazier against peak Foreman was, is, and will always be no contest--peak Foreman would always have "Smokin Joe's" number.

    Fraizer wins a tough decision Foreman was simply too slow and wasn't throwing enough punches

    George Foreman (Qawi fight) had the lowest weight as "second Foreman".

    That may not mean anything, I'm just saying; 235 lbs.

    Special Frazier special "second Foreman".

    Frazier would have likely stopped him inside the distance … see how Qwai was teeing off in the first few rounds …

    I admire Qawi's heart; even went on the offensive against Foreman.
    Qawi's Height 5 ft 6.5 in
