I think someone brought up that Joe's weakness was tall fighters.

Have your say here.

Also how about Joe vs Nino Valdez?

Joe Vs the K bros?

Joe vs Valuev

tiiiiiimmmmmmbbbbbbeeeeeeerrrrrrr.

This would of been funny to see them standing in the ring next to one another.
Joe would need to jump to hit him with a low blow.

I don't think that Wilt Chamberlin could keep Joe Frazier away for more than 3 Rounds.

But everybody knows that Nate Thurmond was the best boxer in Basketball back in the 1960's.

Nate would box out Joe, and back him out of the lane.

Nate by a narrow Decision.

Wow, 2 people actually think Wilt could beat Joe Frazier at his own game.

I think Joe stands a better chance of beating Wilt in basketball one on one.

This may be the most ridiculous post ever.

I'm sure you would have bet everything you own that Joe doesn't score a single basket in a game of 21.

And with a side bet, that all 5' 11" of Joe doesn't even get a shot off against 7' 2" Wilt.

On the other hand, Wilt would have lasted at least 1 Round with Smokin Joe in 1967 and landed at
least 1 jab.

I am not sure Wilt could last a round.Yes he would land a jab.
The body attack on a toothpick would destroy him.

I'm not sure Wilt would last a round but an adult Wilt was definitely no toothpick .

Carry on like this and he'll stop pretending that he doesn't know you're Il Duce. Although why he does in the first place, only he knows.

Wilt had no interest in fighting Frazier.
While Chamberlain always had supreme (over)confidence in his athletic abilities, he admitted that he would prefer to fight Ali in case he was wrong about his own boxing prowess.
Chamberlain wrote that if he was in over his head against Ali, then he was certain that the GOAT would take it easy on him and not attempt to destroy him. He said "that was Ali's nature."
However, Wilt was certain that Frazier would give him a merciless pummeling, saying that Frazier wouldn't play around like Ali probably would.

Frazier takes out The Stilt whenever he would have wanted to.
No Contest.
And no, Frazier doesn't score a bucket on Wilt.

I don't believe for one second that Chamberlain would in reality have been stupid enough to step into the ring with either one of them. He was a professional athlete, not some fool on an internet board. He had to have been quite aware of what would happen if he did.

Wilt´s massive ego might have gotten in the way of common sense. His father told him he had no business getting in the ring with Ali.
