Joe Frazier vs these pressure fighters

Tyson def has the best chance but he's not a "pressure fighter" imo so I went with Dempsey.

 

Dempsey and Tyson have the best chance but none of these guys are beating Frazier

 

How is Tyson not a pressure fighter? Did he not apply pressure? He may have been a counter-puncher, but he was damn aggressive one. His entire style at it's core relied on heavy pressure to get his opponents to open up.

Was he a swarmer? No. He didn't throw nearly enough for that, but he definitely was a pressure fighter.

 

I'd pick Tyson and Marciano.

I think Dempsey has the tools to do it, but I'm not confident he would.

 

Being that Foreman mopped the floor with him and Oscar Bonavena, not really a puncher was the second best puncher ( and nearly finished him ) he fought and nearly everyone listed hit harder than Oscar, Frazier could lose to any name on the list.

Tyson, I think is his toughest match up.

 

From that list it's Tyson.

As great as Frazier is and how he's become underrated recently I just don't see him beating Tyson. The only thing he has on Tyson is heart and mental toughness. They are important but when you review the facts ...

Tyson has a huge speed advantage, he has a power advantage, has the better defense, and is more durable. He also has power in both hands and Frazier starts out slow while Tyson bombs out his opponents early. Tyson is also heavier and stronger than Frazier and has excellent uppercuts ... Frazier was always vulnerable to the uppercut.
