    Agreed although I'm with Seamus athletic means nothing. Frazier might be one of the most athletc Heavyweights ever but one of the worst all round athletes ever.

    I really think Frazier gets this, he could have only been a successful boxer, he couldn't really do anything else.

    I don't think Ali could have done anything else and he is arguably the greatest heavyweight who ever lived.

    I'm not saying Joe Frazier isn't one of the best heavyweights... I'm saying he's probably the least athletic Successful boxer.

    Just saying that Ali could not have drawn a paycheck in any other sport. He wasn't really athletically gifted in other regards... outside of the standard big strong guy with great reflexes.

    Sylvester Stallone's the only really successful one I can think of.
