'69-'71 Frazier vs Jamaica Foreman, and the referee ....

Jamaica Foreman KO2 Jacqui Frazier-Hyde

 

Frazier would possibly score an upset eleventh round TKO, If he can survive the early onslaught.

 

I'd still say Foreman. His style was a nightmare for Frazier. Would last a bit longer,maybe.

 

it really is that simple...

I won't disagree that Frazier wasn't 100% by 1973, but some have tried to devise the notion that he was utterly shot, which is drastically taking things in the other direction.. he was perhaps only 7 or 8 lbs above his best fight weight, 29 years of age, the undefeated reigning champion and maybe a year and half removed from the best performance of his career.. In addition, he would go on after the Foreman loss to give Muhammad Ali two more life and death battles, and duplicate his wins over Quarry and Ellis. Now could a 1969 or 70' Frazier last more than two rounds and land a few more shots? My answer is "probably." But to completely turn the tables from getting pasted in two rounds while still being near prime to winning the fight all together on the basis of being " a little sharper" isn't going to happen.
