    Easily Holmes. He was the best fighter of his era and Frazier was #2 or 3.

    Frazier has the top win, Holmes had better longevity and a deeper record.

    Frazier has quality while Holmes has longevity. I've always had Larry a little bit higher but I can see an argument going the other way.

    Frazier was arguably the no.1 Heavyweight from around 1968 to 73

    Frazier ! Holmes wasn't undisputed world champion plus Frazier's Ali win smokes overrated
    longevity (and it was destroyed by a 21 years old "boy") .

    I'd say on paper Holmes looks better, if you actually watch their best fights Frazier looks better.
