    Joe Frazier was a much better bober & weaver than Mike Tyson.
    Alot smoother, shorter punches.
    Tyson faster but ackward and alot of times off balance,

    The ****??

    Frazier never beat a prime Ali he beat the version of Ali after his long layoff and he'd lost something by that point... and you can say that Tyson had a better overall defense, I can agree with that, but NO ONE ever moved their head more consistently than Frazier. :deal

    Frazier fought a past prime Ali, IMO 66-67 Ali beats Frazier quite easily, and Tyson while better wouldn't be able to deal with 67 Ali. Now 88 Tyson could probably take 72 Ali.

    Same way I see it, although I think 88 Tyson does have a chance against 66-67 Ali as Cooper proved against a '62 Ali, albeit a small one...

    I've watched enough of Tyson to know what hurts him, unlike most misguided posters who simply say he is unbeatable or just stand up to him and he folds, in 88 Tyson was great, but fast moble fighters with serious speed & footwork would trouble him, I think peak Ali beats him for that reason. I also think he struggles with a peak Holmes.
