    I agree that Frazier takes it conclusively. If Bonavena knocks Mildenberger down four times, and Leotis Martin knocks him down three a few months later, Mildenberger won't stand up to Frazier.

    Mildenberger came off the Ali fight as a top contender for several months and beat a few lower top-15 types, but Frazier is a whole other level.
