    Frazier took foremans best shots and still got up from all of the knockdowns. If Foreman hit Tyson he would of been out on the first knockdown. Just look at Tyson's history of getting knocked down in a fight. Douglas knocked him down and he never got up, Holyfield knocked him down and never got up, williamson knocked him down and never got up, mcbride knocked him down and then he quit in his corner.

    Put Tyson in the ring for the last 2 rounds at Manilla at '75 and tell me if he wouldn't quit, hell he wouldnt even be standing.

    Joe Frazier was taking a beating so bad he couldn't even see. But what happened: he stayed on his feet the entire time, and was going to go for another round, but his trainer stopped him.

    It's as simple as that. Tyson could never stand up from those bombs Foreman was throwing at Frazier that night. But Frazier shot up everytime.

    No way does Tyson's chin come close to comparing to the chin of Smokin' Joe.

    cant believe your still wasting time with this moron?

    Tyson would knock Frazier out, simply because Tyson was a better fighter, there i said it.

    If Tyson at his prime had beaten that version of Ali. Tyson would have got **** for beating a guy coming off a 3 year layoff

    There's a lot of ifs and buts concerning Tyson with you. Frazier's one win against Ali pisses all over any of Tyson's wins without a doubt.

    one win does not make a legacy, outside of Ali, who has Frazier got?

    Douglas was only fat after Tyson, & while often lazy-like some ATGs, inc. Ali at times-he was a very good fighter. Tyson & Frazier both fought some very good fighters, do we have to name them?

    People go to extremes. Bonavena//Ellis/Quarry/Chuvalo/Bugner or Green/Thomas/Berbick/Tillis/Spinks & others on both nsides were not the proverbial chopped liver.

    douglas was lazy before tyson. however when his mom died he got in the shape oh his life and gave it everything he had when the old douglas usually would've quit.
