    Please explain to me how Foreman would stop a physically fit, young, faster, and better conditioned peak frazier faster than he stopped the old war tore slob. I am sorry but that has got to be the stupidest thing i heard in my life.

    you are the old poster round 15 or a similar name, the only one obssesed fanboy with this fantasy match, you can post this crap 350 times... it wil not change the facts.. you could argue anything if their real fight was close, but it was a complete beting , frazier was 29 years old undefeated, and you are trying to explain it like if frazier was a shot or past his prime , no.. frazier even in 1975 gave ali the hell... it has nothing to do with him being past his prime.. it was a thing of styles.. frazier himself did admit that ali and foreman were different, and he did not think that he could have beaten foreman in any point of his career, WE NEVER DID LISTEN FRAZIER SAYING THAT IT WAS BECAUSE HE WAS IN BAD SHAPE OR PAST HS PRIME .foreman would ko frazier once and again 100 times if it is necesary. you have absolutely no proof but your fantasy and your biased opinion to support that frazier would beat foreman, so don´t be boring...

    Frazier would not likely beat a prime Foreman, it would be very few fights out of 100.

    But Frazier was past his prime in both meetings. ANd Foreman past his prime, more due to psychology, for the 2nd meeting. Manilla was a Thrilla, but BOTH fighters were past prime, though still so good, & part of the excitement & sadness is they could not evade blows well.

    Your dedication to the task is admirable, but give it up already. You're out on a limb here with a bunch of 'what if's'...I'll stick to what I saw in real life.

    So you're not willing to except that Frazier wasn't at his best against Foreman but you give Tyson a free ticket for getting destroyed by Douglas who wasn't even in Foreman's time zone!

    The Douglas that faced Tyson would be a hard night's work for any heavyweight.I'd give him an excellent chance with Frazier who took 11 rds to beat a poor version of Douglas in Buster Mathis.

    No 8.5lbs .

    Ali weighed 10.5lbs heavier when he kod Foreman than he did when he kod Liston.Ali weighed 10.5lbs more when he lost to Norton than when he won the title from Liston.
    Frazier gets murdered every time by Foreman.
    Enough with the excuses,time to face reality.:deal

    Frazier would have a field day with Douglas.

    How come he was level on the scorecard of Arthur Mercante against Buster Mathis? Who was a much lesser version of Buster Douglas?

    The Douglas that beat Tyson would give Frazier hell.


    You are thinking with your emotions ,not your head.
