Joe Frazier vs Ingemar Johansson

A better poll question would be: "What round does Frazier KO Ingo
1-2
3-4
5 or later

 

Ingo gets clobbered in 3-4imo

 

Frazier is a much higher class than Johansson, and I don't think their fight would go on for very long. Despite this, I think that it would still be pretty entertaining for as long as it lasts- Both men knocked down and Ingo eventually put away for good, that's how I see it.

No, Johansson would not be able to win with a lucky punch. Even FOREMAN couldn't put Frazier down for good in their first fight.

 

I see Frazier going low and springing up with the left hook tricking Johansson in the same way Patterson did in their rematch and catching a tiring Johansson.

Frazier would get inside relatively easily, Johansson isn’t the most fleet of foot and he can’t shorten up his punches well at all.

Johansson has a good straight right, but Frazier had all the tools to get past the tools Johansson has.

 

Frazier by annihilation.

 

Bad match up for Ingo. He gets out punched, out worked and out skilled within 5 rounds.
Ingo had a helluva right hand but not much else. Frazier had better hand speed, an elite left hand, great head movement, body attack and an out this world workrate. Johanssen has two chances, slim and none.

 

Frazier would survive some scary knockdowns, but he will stop Ingo in 4th or 5th round.

 

1 round. Frazier who hit hard outweighed Paterson by almost 20 pounds and Floyd put his lights out twice in 5 and 6. Frazier also was much more aggressive then Floyd and took a punch much better.

 

FOTC Frazier demolishes Ingo with a KO in 3.

 

Ingo would struggle against the Joe Frazier who fought Jumbo Cummings to a draw.

 

Cummings would be a live dog against Ingo.

 

I think Ingo would exceed expectations. As you can see Frazier is trailing 26-0(26 KO/TKO) in the poll so expectations are low.
