Joe Frazier vs George Carpentier

How long is a piece of string?

 

About as long as Bob Foster.

 

waiting for janitor pickin carpentier after all he is older, at least he will say that it is close

 

Carpienter had enough tricks up his sleeve and hit hard enough to hold Frazier off for a little bit but Frazier would eventually get through and then its lights out.

Frazier KO 7

 

Sorry to disappoint you, but I would expect Frazier to put him away pretty decisively.

 

yeah, because i wrote what i wrote. if not your comment could have been very different lol

 

Are you suggesting that I would have picked Carpintier, if you had not predicted me to do so?

 

maybe not pickin him but saying that it would be closer

 

You don’t like my criteria for rating heavyweights, and I get that.

I would challenge you to point out any occasion when I have applied them inconsistently however.

If a modern fighter legitimately has a good resume then I give them credit for it, and if an old timer has a thin resume, then I am the first to admit it.

 

Wasn't Dempsey asked to let the fight go a few rounds to let the fans get their money's worth?

Frazier would take Carpentier in 2-3 rounds max.

 

That might well have happened, but we can’t be sure.

Carpintier was unequivocally a strong challenger, in the division that existed at the time.

That aside, he was overmatched against Dempsey, and he would have been overmatched against Frazier.

 

Carpentier, the man who was no match for Siki, against Frazier? Really? Frazier in one. (Dempsey carried him.)

 

Lol. Frazier runs through carpentier like **** through a goose.
