    Who cares how big he is, he ain’t good enough to hang with Joe. Joe isn’t McDermott or Cunningham, and Fury isn’t Foreman, Prime Frazier isn’t getting ko’d by Fury.
    Frazier outworks him
    *****.

    Two different weight classes. If bridgerweight is a real thing, Frazier would barely qualify. Size matters, Fury by decision.

    I think prime Tyson Fury wins this by decision over Joe Frazier. But I do not think Fury's size advantage is the deciding factor.

    It's a mismatch physically but this is one time when I don't think physics will prevail, Tyson Fury has never in his life seen anything like prime Joe Frazier.

    The fat ladies sung. Frazier well ahead at 24 votes to 13. He ain't being overtaken, we know how much he smokes down the stretch.

    Frazier wins by TKO 13.

    These big slobs are usually gassed by round 6. Frazier was just warming up by then.

    I’d love to see the cardio deficient Fury trying to keep Joe away in rounds 13,14,15 when Frazier is fully in the zone. He could barely do it with Usyk after 9 rounds at a less frenetic pace than Frazier set.

    The "Uppercut Hypothesis" could definitely reflect the way this goes for Fury.

    I mean... ...What could go wrong?

    He's lucky that he doesn't punch hard. Imagine scoring your own KD.

    :lol:

    Yeah, him not punching too hard is certainly a benefit for this high-risk strategy, as is his modest punch output, reducing the instances of self-slapping.

    It would be the first example of a dual exchange where only one boxer suffers the damage...!

    Either way the fight ends up on the inside all night. If Fury goes weight bully , he's coming in right where Joe wants him. If Fury goes lighter and tries to stay outside with that flick jab, Frazier gets in easy. Joe's not going to gas like Wilder, hes got one of the best engines of all time.. He will break down the oaf , and stop him in the 8th

    Fury quits on his stool after getting an infighting lesson from Frazier. Joe slips Tyson's jab and shovels hooks into his ribs. Fury would end up gunshy pinned to the ropes. No leverage on his punches Tyson starts to wilt Frazier starts to grin.
    Smokey just about warmed up when Fury's corner stops it. 6-8 rounds.
