    There you go again the judges got it wrong blah blah. Unfortunately for you and Norton ultimately only the judges decision counts.

    I never said that frazier couldnt box. I just said that it was his power that won him the fight right? Or was frazier a better boxer then ali that night.

    ok i can play that game too. Ali sucks he lost to leon spinks. I dont care he was ill at that time, what counts is the verdict and not the circumstances.
    such a double standard of yours.

    Well even Ali said he lost Olu, that's good enough for me. Why you think he phoned big George up to sort Norton out ????

    It was everything that Frazier had that enabled him to get that hard won victory inclusive of skills, technical ability,power the ability to negate range, timing etc.

    Cooper had a magnificent left hook! There you go denigrating the best British heavyweight of the 1960s. So disrespectful!

    He's not one of the biggest punchers of all time though, and they resorted to ripping the glove to beat Cooper

    When you fight 3 times it’s pretty clear who won and who the better fighter is. I will not denigrate Norton who deserves better than that but you think it’s okay to denigrate the legendary Ali. You are sad and pitiful.

    Its well documented Ali phoned Foreman to see if he'd fight Norton instead of himself.. Really Olu, I thought you would have known this

    What are Foreman, Frazier, Earnie Shavers, Sonny Liston, Cleveland big Cat Williams, George Chuvalo and others? Behave yourself.
