i have both fights in full in excellent picture & sound quality.. Frazier was grossly out-of-shape weighing 14lbs heavier than he had for Fight of the Century... Foremans illegal tactics of "Pushing"Frazier when he came in, was greatly in Georges favour

you could tell Frazier was a little bit bigger than usual in that fight .I don't think that it would have mattered as Frazier was tailor made for Big George. He did do better in the 2nd fight though. I read somewhere that Foreman was actually scared of Frazier in the first fight and just wanted to take him out early.

This is what happens when you have a suspect chin and spend your entire career shielded away from big punchers and then finally find yourself in there with arguably the biggest puncher.Quite possibly the greatest mismatch in the history of boxing,they fought in the same weight class but they were several classes apart in terms of their class as a fighter.
