    just watched an hour of JL. Great combos. Short , tight and powerful. But does any of his opponents think to keep their left high to ward off that terrorizing right hand? IMO opinion JF too much . I think that he would make Joe fight off the back foot . Not so effective as the seemingly scared fighters he fought. Biased towards Frazier. But I do appreciate JL.

    You’re right he wasn’t AS strong as Marciano he was stronger. Frazier was 205 at his peak and every bit as hard a trainer as Marciano. Marciano for the 2 biggest fights of his career Louis and Walcott weighed 184 1/2. Look it up. There was not a 185 fighter ever lived that could have beaten Frazier.

    I disagree. My money would be on Joe.
