    Foreman Frazier was a better win. The dominance over Frazier was astounding.

    I think you're forgetting Badou Jack vs Groves.

    I always thought TBE's win over the legend Robert the Ghost Gurrero was greater :lol:

    Definitely one of the greatest wins of all-time.
    The storyline alone... The Greatest reclaiming his championship after having it taken away from him Vs. The Biggest, Baddest MoFo of his era.


    Personal Favorite as #1 tho has to be the 2nd Louis Vs. Max Schmeling

    Either Ali-Foreman or Louis-Schmeling in terms of importance,

    Oddly enough, both Louis-Schmeling fights have a claim to being bigger wins.

    Also, Frazier-Ali I and Liston-Ali I have very good arguments to being greater wins.

    Ali was a 7-1 underdog vs Sonny the first time out, for reference. He was a 3-1 'dog vs Foreman. As much as we say now that nobody gave Ali a chance vs George (which isn't accurate), Liston was a much bigger favorite at the time and viewed in an even more devastating light.

    Foreman-Frazier is better.

    Frazier was coming off of a total ass whipping of a 29 year old Ali. And then Foreman just obliterates him.

    And then Foreman gets obliterated by Ali.

    Foreman's win over Fraizer might be a better performance, but Ali KO8 Foreman was definetly the greater win.
