    who were the better fighters, Ali and Foreman or Lyle? How would it have looked if Frazier had fought Lyle or Foster instead of the guy who beat them? Face it, you guys need an excuse to hate. If Joe ducked Quarry to fight Lyle you'd be bitching about that too. He fought the better fighters, tell me he didn't?
    You are missing the point. Ok then. Frazier fought the better fighters. I agree.

    But Frazier clearly ducked the bigger punchers. He ducked the more serious threats. Just like Amir Khan. He ducked the bigger threat to fight the better fighter. True?

      Dude, read what you're writing. How do you duck the bigger threat if you're fighting the better fighters? Seriously?

        That's totally irrelavent because Paulie is nowhere near the fighter to the 140lb division that Ali was to the heavyweight division. Ali was a top 3-5 fighter. Paulie's not top 5. That's a big difference.

        This is so fn pointless and dumb to argue about. You guys have to be fn kidding me. So by your logic Wlad is ducking Arreola, because he's a big puncher yet his brother beat him, but since Wlad didn't beat him and beat Eddie Chambers instead.

        God damn this is so fn ******. The cards just didn't line up for those guys to fight Frazier, face it. It by no means, means that Frazier ducked them because he fought the guys that just beat them. I thought you guys were better then this. I guess Manny should be fighting Shane since he's a bigger puncher then Floyd although Floyd just beat shane right? Or it will get held against him right? Come on guys, get real.

          Frazier had a suspect chin. Bigger puncher = Bigger threat to Frazier.

          Are you denying this? Don't let your love for Smokey blur your vision mate. This is very clear.

            Dude please gtfo.

            Wlad ducking Arreola? wtf is wrong with you? Wlad hasn't ducked a big puncher in his career.

            Frazier only fought 1 big puncher in his career.

              Dude were talking about Fraizer "ducking" them. You may or not be right. But in no way did he duck them by fighting the fighters that beat them.

              I would disagree with that though because Foreman dropped him so many times and he always got back up and was ready to fight again. Was never completely unconscious like Sonny even said.

                I never said he did. But by your ****** ass logic about Frazier apparently he did! Why the **** should Wlad fight Arreola after his brother destroyed him? The answer is he shouldn't at all. Now why the **** should Frazier fight Lyle after Quarry beat just beat him rather then fight Quarry?

                EXACTLY!!!! It makes no fn sense. Frazier fought the winners, not the losers. It just wasn't meant to be. He didn't duck punchers, they just lost the fights that would lead to him, it's not his fault.

                  If Lyle wasn't worthy to fight frazier because he lost to Quarry,then why was Joe bugner and Jimmy Ellis worthy to fight frazier when Lyle had beaten both men?

                  Game,set and match.Honestly,gabby,you should just give up.There was a time where even though you were wrong,you'd still put up a fight.Now you're just rolling over and inviting others to kick you while you're down.


                  Lyle was certainly relevant enough for Muhammad Ali to give him a title shot.Ron Lyle was certainly relevant enough to be chosen as foreman's first fight following his demise in Zaire.

                    some great points......

                    These Frazier apologists like to play the, "oh Ron Lyle wasn't relevant" card.
