Frazier may very well have been hurt in that second round but I don't think he was threatened to be stopped like some have said. Certainly, Ali...
Frazier was motivated the most for Ali in his career. There was no other fighter who got under his skin more than Ali and he was better prepared...
Which is why I don't agree with those who consistently believe George Foreman would destroy any version of Joe Frazier regardless of time or...
I can see the argument both ways. Mike Tyson arguably could have been the greatest heavyweight ahead of Ali, Louis, Johnson, Dempsey and...
His defense has been pretty good his whole career but it's hard to gage how good it is because he's changed styles. In his earlier career,...
It's hard to pick any heavyweight in history that would keep up with the prime late 1960's version of Ali. I think Frazier could catch him and...

Respect to you JImBroughton for you post and opinion. By the same rationale you could say that Frazier poorly prepared for George Foreman and...
I think you're underrating Frazier's chin ChrisPontius. Mercer had perhaps one of the best chins in heavyweight history, but Frazier was a...
He didn't always walk straight into his opponents head on, hands low like he did against Foreman in 1973. Frazier was decent at cutting off the...
Disagree with you ChrisPontius. The evidence of their fighting careers will always support a George Foreman KO of Frazier. I'm not denying that....
I'd say 1980 Larry Holmes by a very close decision over 15 rounds, winning 8 to 7 on the scorecards by average. 1971 Frazier was just starting to...
I think this version of Frazier or just before the FOTC would take Foreman out before the bell for round 10. Foreman wouldn't be able to KO a...
Ellis, Chuvalo, Manuel Ramos and Bob Foster were Joe's peak perfomances. I'd argue that he was physically prime for Ali in the FOTC at 205.5...
Delahoya was more concerned about his fight purse than fighting Pacquiao. The younger, fresher and ultimately hungrier fighter won the fight. He...
