    Is there any videos of Joe Frazier 1964 Tokyo Olympic fights? I'm just curious how Frazier fought as an amateur, seems like his style haven't changed much after he turned pro?

    At least two of them. Also his olympic trials loss to mathis.

    Mathis
    Yemelynov
    Huber

    Ive been looking for his Olympic bouts with Oywello and McQueen for years. Im sure they are out there but I havent found them yet.

    Edit: I have a very short clip of him against McQueen also.

    I think Frazier was floored in a match before the gold medal match. He also had a multiple knock down fight as an amateur vs. some tough NJ based heavyweight.
