    i watched the fight of the century,and i have come to the conclusion it was not even the fight of the year,frazier looked like a middleweight,he was a puny fighter,and ali lost that fight because ali was not the boxer he was all hyped up to be,this fight to be called fight of the century is ridiculous,they should remove that title from the match,i see nothing in the fight or all their fights to even say one fight was good

      Funny, but I was just thinking the same thing about your posts.

          What do you think of Fraziers bobbing and weaving style, do you think he move his head better than Mike Tyson?
          Frazier had one of the greatest bob and weave style in the history of the sport. His heart was unquestionable. Take a look at rounds 13 and 14 of the Manila fight. Frazier was practically blind and took a hellacious beating from Ali. The fact that Futch had to stop the fight before Frazier could permanently lose his vision is a testament to his courage

              Also kept picking himself up and moving forward against Foreman, some warrior Frazier.

                I think frazier is

                1) Hard Hitter with a mean left hook
                2) Knocked Down ali
                3) had a huge heart getting floored 6 times by George Foreman
                4) wanted to continue the Thrilla in Manilla fight despite his massive injuries and swelling he definately had heart and i rate him in my top 11 best heavyweights..

                  Well think of it like this..........

                  If someone says he had better head movement Tyson fans will point to how much he got hit against some opponents, but can you name me a fighter who put as much sustained pressure on as this guy and did not get hit much? Frazier had!! to apply that much pressure because he was not a one shot man like Tyson, he had power but not the power of a Tyson, at least not imo.

                  Frazier was the quintessential pressure fighter if you did not KO him he would steam roller you. There was no place to hide when he was in the ring.

                    I think you'll find drivel and irritating more accurate.

                      Frazier was a great fighter, good pressure, head movement, left hook, inside game. And as tough and game as they come. He was brave to the point of ******ity vs Foreman in their first fight, and he wanted to keep going vs Ali 3, despite being battered and partially blind.

                      I always LOL when I remember reading about when they asked him to appear on the Simpsons, (where he steps outside and bashes Barney Gumble). They initially wanted it to show Barney beating up Joe, but Joe objected and refused to lend his voice if he was going to be shown getting beaten up shows you what type of a man he was, proud and brave guy.

                      I think he definitely makes HW top 10 all time
