    Marciano and Frazier are 2 of my favorite fighters ever......but I would never count out The Rock against anyone....Rocky by TKO in a very exciting fight...

    1970-71 joe frazier was awsome and a match for any heavyweight. His timing was superb, the left hook could land at any range and all of his movments gave him a great slip game, room and footing to pull the trigger. the man was a machine at that point. ellis, quarry and ali were the best heavyweights during this period ....and this frazier cleaned them out! this was a truly great fighter.

    even this version of frazier would always have trouble with oscar bonnavena and therefore marciano.

    Frazier had a very short peak indeed, but a great one!

    Frazier by close 15 rd decision in the best mythical telephone booth fight in history outside of the Duran/Chavez/Armstrong triangle.
