Prime Frazier vs Prime Foreman

Post by Rexob »

A prime Frazier with Ali's style and a prime Foreman with a Larry Holmes style who would win? Remember it's at the very peak of their abilities nothing else.

Must have been the Ali style he adopted for this fight?

Frazier weighed 10 pounds heavier in the Foreman fight than he did in his win over Ali.

After winning the Fight Of The Century, Frazier felt like he was God and started partying and eating, and stopped training seriously. Foreman was probably sent to him by God to teach him a lesson.

Prime for prime, Frazier would have made it an inside fight, and Foreman would have been basically helpless. Foreman was always limited in terms of boxing skill. All he really had in his early days was power from long range.

Yes. but what would happen if Frazier adopted alli's style and Big bad George Foreman adopted Holmes style of fighting who would win?

Might be time to merge all this fellow's posts under a single heading of "Please help me; I think I have a Joe Frazier fetish"

I think Frazier wins mainly because I think Prime Ali beats Holmes. Lost in their one-sided beatdown is the fact that, when Ali was dancing, Holmes had no answer. He just hopelessly followed Ali and waited for Alito stop dancing to unload on him.

Of course, Giancarlo comes into an argument that had NOTHING to do with him. From looking at past posts you seem to have a habit of doing this. Don't you think that's getting old? Don't you ever get tired of pulling the same shit over, and over, and, over again?
