    Are they high? I was looking at other fights, for instance Mayweather-Pacquiao, two much smaller men, and the punch count was almost fiffy percent lower.

    It's also the way punches were thrown there have been fights with more punches thrown but they didn't look as brutal as this as well as the movements.

    Ali had to keep throwing to keep Joe off him.

    Pac and Mayweather are a lot more skilled then Ali and Frazier is why it might be why the punch count is lower… Joe Frazier being so dog aggressive is also part of that equation.
