Oh, man what the heck is this? I don't think that Papa Frazier would have allowed his son fight somebody like Earnie. And if he does?

Earnie Shavers KO 1 Marvis Frazier in a minute after nailing him with a devastating right hand.

Marvis had underrated ability. He is remembered for getting KOd in 1 by Tyson and Holmes, but he'd be KO'd here too.

That right hand will catch Marvis. Shavers within 4 rounds.

Yeah, Shavers would likely stop him later, than prime Tyson and Holmes.

I'm not sure if Earnie would catch Marvis in the 1st, but I can't imagine Marvis making it out of the first 5 rounds without getting blasted somewhere along the way.

Marvis really shoulda been a cruiser, he wasn't a bad fighter but just totally overwhelmed vs stronger bigger hws

Maybe Light Heavyweight even. Way too slender of a frame for Heavyweight.
