    Unofortunately they let Freddy Pachecho speak. Whaterver his name is. I hate that guy. Archie Moore too though. Including one of the telephone conversations pre-FOTC.

    If George Foreman uttered exactly the same words of Frazier being easy to hit early, he would've been spot-on in his prediction. I'm not sure if Ali really believed what he said, but if he did, then he genuinely thought he could stay out of Frazier's range for 15 rounds.
