Frazier is more a constant presser, with regular pressure applied relentlessly. If Dempsey was the guy to look at for Mike, Marciano, though not as refined, is the guy who Frazier fights like...both guys never stopped coming and while not explosive were constant with the pressure. Joe had that beautiful left hook and Marciano fought very well inside with those dinosaur (T Rex) arms!
yes this is a bit of a simplification for the purposes of making this point...lol
