Anyone have any rough idea what Smokin' Joe threw on average? I remember watching his match against Ramos months ago and he had to of thrown close to or more then a 100 punches during one of those rounds and I found that incredible. So, anyone?
I think the The Fight of the Century was the heavyweight fight with most punches before Ike Ibeabuchi vs David Tua dethroned it (1,730 in total with Ibeabuchi setting a record of 975). But Frazier's workrate was awesome for a man of his size.
I counted them during their first fight a while back. Here are Frazier's stats: Round 1 31 Round 2 29 Round 3 37 Round 4 42 Round 5 38 Round 6 54 Round 7 51 Round 8 73 Round 9 44 Round 10 49 Round 11 63 Round 12 53 Round 13 62 Round 14 32 Round 15 43 Total punches thrown: 701. Average punch output per round: 47. Notice that unlike most fighters, Frazier rarely jabs. I'd guess that at least 70% of those punches had full steam behind them.
I was wondering what his stats were as well. Those are pretty good stats considering almost every punch he throws is meant to take your head off or shatter your ribs.
