    why was he taking so much punishment?

    maybe its because his defence was **** or just none existent

    No maybe it's because he was fighting the greatest heavyweights of all time??

    i don't worship him i just think he was a better boxer than tyson. in a fight tyson may have him on the canvas early on but frazier would come back to win the fight.

    and he stayed in the whole time, when most other heavyweights don't even go the distance let alone win.

    frazier's chin was vulnerable at the beginning of each fight but once he started smoking he wouldn't get knocked down. notice how he never got knocked down durring and after round 6.

    You talk some pure ****, Tyson's not half the man Frazier was. Tyson was a ***** who bit like a kid because he knew he was in for a spanking off his daddy, FACT!!!

    Erh would that be because he never got past the 5th round in two of his three stoppage losses?:patsch
    Would that also because in the other fights he had he never faced a top puncher?:lol:

    Tyson took the shots of Ruddock,Smith and Bruno without going down ,you say Frazier took Foreman's shots , no he didn't, every time George landed hard Frazier hit the deck.The referee stopped it before he got stretched for good.

    Like I said Ruddock is way overrated and he's not the puncher or finisher Foreman was, hahaha Tyson basically took one **** in anger by both Smith and Bruno and was wobbled. He was also knocked out by an average puncher in Douglas, no way would Tyson stand up to the beatings Ali gave Frazier and you know it. Tyson was getting knocked out at 38 whereas Frazier after a 5 year layoff fought to a draw, Frazier was the tougher man.

    Frazier never fought until he was nearly 40.If he had he would have been getting routinely stopped by just those guys.Do you think a 38 years old Frazier beats Danny Williams? Tyson was a month away from his 38th birthday when Williams beat him, Williams was a good puncher too.

    Tyson was 39 when McBride stopped him.
    Tyson was a past prime36 years old when Lewis ,a big bomber stopped him.

    Lewis would have decapitated a 36years old Frazier.

    You do talk some ****.

    He was able and willing to carry on unlike Tyson who'd just been on his knees like a baby searching for it's dummy. At 37 Frazier was buzzed by Cummings yet fought gallantly to a draw, Tyson was knocked out and plain ass quit at a similar age. We're talking different leagues of fighting hearts, Tyson's not half the man Frazier was.
