    The sky would be green and sheep would rule the world. It would be utter ****ing madness.

    I am a Quarry fan and I agree with your Frazier assessment 100%. Frazier was simply in a different class.

    That's a (young) Frazier's fault. Do you dispute that Ali was out of the ring for 3 1/2 years while Joe was plying his trade with multiple tough opponents during the March 67-October 70 Ali layoff?
    3 rounds against Quarry, a full-length (almost) scrap with Oscar? 90 days later the FOTC. I repeat, if Ali had waited until the summer of 71 to fight Joe, he would have won IMHO.

    Jean-Pierre Coopman and Pete Rademacher would be the top two all time great heavyweights.

    Soon I expect somebody to start a thread entitled:

    "What if Joe Grim had beaten Jack Johnson?"
