    Frazier would beat both these dudes if we're talking prime for prime. You're not out-boxing prime Frazier, he just outlands you, the fast pressure, that hook. You got to KO him I think

    That's prime for prime.

    But Frazier probably only has one titanic war in him and also seems to have the Champion's disease of slipping off once at the very top. Johnson had that too, but more longevity in general.

    I'd favor Joe over both.

    The only guy I might pick to outbox Joe is 67 Ali.

    I rate "Smokin" Joe Fraizier very highly, I'm picking Joe to win both these fights

    I say Holmes can do enough to win.

    Johnson....I favour Frazier to do more work.
