    I agree with him about Marciano. Tyson could go either way. Tyson takes him out early, or frazier KOes Tyson sometime after round 10.

    Joe's alright. He's old and stutters but I don't really see heavy effects of brain damage.

    The problem always with Joe is it takes him a couple rounds to warm up. That isn't gonna work against Tyson. Tyson is gonna come out with ferocious fast and hard combination's on Joe. I don't believe Joe could handle it. I don't see the fight lasting 3 rounds. Now if Joe can somehow stretch Tyson out to round 6 or so I'd give it to Joe, but I don't see the fight lasting that long.

    Marciano is a good one. Essentially he and Joe are the same types of fighters. They are both slow starters Marciano hits harder and Joe is faster. Marciano could take Joe out with his hard punches. But on the other hand Rocky swings wild with his punches leaving himself open for Frazier to tag him good. How many of Frazier's hook and uppercuts can Rocky take before he goes down? And the fact that Rocky tends to cut fairly easy doesn't help him either.

    Joe's talked like that for years. Sometimes a few words are very clear and other words mumbled. You can tell he still thinks clearly if you listened to what he said about
    differences from now compared to the past. Also, Joe has a sense of humour that some
    don't seem to understand. By the way, Joe thinks George could be the average heavyweight of today if he were to train.

    Beating Marciano or Tyson??? Sure why not, anything can happen.

    But I dont see Frazier walking though them like they were nothing like Joe is claiming here. If Frazier makes it out of the early rounds vs Tyson, it would be a wear em out type of war and ordel on Frazier's body imo.

    Marciano would be back and forth and anything can happen. Yeah Joe "Might" beat them(And thats up for debate)

    But just walking thown them like nothing??? Thats other can of worms right there.
