Originally posted by TheGreatA View PostDepends if you're talking about all-time great heavyweights or all-time great pound for pound. Frazier is top 15 as far as a resume goes at heavyweight, go through the resumes of all heavyweights if you need proof. I'd say that's worthy of A or A-, A+ being the likes of Ali and others top 5 heavyweights.
If you're talking pound for pound, then Frazier is around B+, A-, not a top 40 all-time great in my opinion.
That's how I see it myself, D and C being below average or poor, C+ and B- being average, B & B+ being above average, A- being very good, A an all-time great, A+ one of the very greatest of all time, such as Ali, Robinson, Armstrong. Frazier was not quite up there with them, but he is second or third tier.

You should be ashamed of putting Wlad, Vitaly, Holmes, Mercer and Bowe on that list. That is truly reaching.

Wow I must have missed where you exposed me. Nope, still can't see it. Its not there, sorry.
And I've exposed you in your vulgar private messages that you can't handle criticism, that you choose to ignore facts and that, once again, you're a blatant idiot.
Is that what you were doing, I was wondering about that? And all along I thought you were just flaming like you are now.
This is the end of our conversation, short bus. I've given you to much attention already.

Originally posted by JAB5239 View PostYou can scratch Holmes, Wlad, Vitaly, Bowe and especially Mercer. I'd say Fraziers resume is about equal with Charles, Patterson, Lewis, Holyfield and Liston. It would have been better than Foremans had George never come back, but it is what it is.

Originally posted by Snopkins View PostRicky Hatton only lost ATG fighters too.I don't see anyone rating Hatton as a true great.
Norton beat an Ali that wasn't as rusty as an old warehouse bucket.Ali was a very active fighter at the time,consistently fighting top opposition as a way of forcing frazier to stop ducking him and step in the ring with him.
Norton also beat Ali more decisively than frazier did too.
Hatton is a C fighter at best. Joe fought and beat ATG Ali. Hatton fought 2 ATG's and was utterly destroyed.
Nobody ever thought he belonged in the ring with Floyd or Manny anyway, but he was hyped up before the fight and people bought into it.
Only an idiot like you would be shocked to see him disposed of as quickly as he was.

Originally posted by r.burgundy View Postso you critize wlad,holmes,vitali for fighting in a weak era,yet praise joe for fightig in a tough era and skipping out on 4 of its best contenders?help me out here cause im not seeing your logic
Joe was at his peak in the FOTC and declined rapidly after. He had a great career.
