Well dear sir, if you compare Recht's scorecard with the other 2, truly, the only thing that sticks out is round 1, and the overall result (11-4...
I think that the judge who scored the FoTC with 11-4 in Joe's favor deserves a mention.
I think that the layoff did more damage to Ali than FOTC+George did do Frazier. Ali never could quite dominate his opponents like he did...
The knockdown was real for sure. Was it enough for a real KO, or did Sonny Liston quit, only Liston can tell us the truth. Or rather can't...
How can such a close fight be considered a robbery? And let's stay on topic. Ali would have had a huge psychological advantage over Foreman in...
Warwick Hunt Playing the "I'm an Ali fan" card to make your arguments (criticism) seem more valid is just childish. Oh and, Ali rarely stood...
Ali lands a very fast punch, Liston falls, pretty naturally. This is very hard to fake. Think about it, you've got a split second to decide, "yep,...
Ali haters gonna hate. He did have quite an impact on the world, doesn't matter what haters think :)
I respect your opinion, but I disagree. In my opinion, Ali from late '73 (Norton II) to late '74 (Rumble in the Jungle) was much better than...

They were both significant, each in their own way. TFOTC was the clash of two undefeated champions, even though both fighters were in their...
Bummy Davis - Your argument is pretty moot since the FOTC was not scored according to the 10 point-must-system. If it was, this wouldn't be...
Reading your comments, one would get the impression that Frazier outlanded Ali at least 3 to 1. klompton2 can't see Ali landing, even with...
I forgot to mention Ali-Bonavena. Ali should have been DQ-ed for standing over Bonavena. There, some more truth, and it's quite confusing :)
I guess it's hard to debate people who believe that Ali lost all 3 Frazier fights, all 3 Norton fights, the Young fight, the Shavers fight, the...
