    Are you suggesting it wasn't a close fight? It was a close fight, Will.

    And to answer your question, I remember watching a Muhammad Ali interview afterwards where he believed he won the fight because he landed more punches, etc. So yes, he had himself winning the fight.

    Ive seen the fight mate, and I believe you that Ali said that but he was always a great self promoter.

    All Im saying is right after the final bell rings, only one of these guys looks like the winner

    You could say the same after MAB-Morales II. I scored that in favour of MAB, who looked noticeably dejected in comparison to Erik. It makes no odds.

    For the record, I've never scored Ali-Frazier I in Ali's favour.

    Then Frazier definitely won.

    From memory 8-6-1 Frazier. Close fight but Smoke deserved that one.
