    Ali killed two birds with one stone by beating the seemingly unbeatable brute and also beating the man who beat the man who won the Fight of the Century..

      It's a little close, but I'll go with Frazier over Ali. The hype heading into that fight was insane and this was a super fight that met, if not surpassed expectations.

      Someone can make a case that Ali over Foreman was bigger, but I personally can't.

          True. Has there been a superfight that surpassed expectations even more than Ali-Frazier 1?

            Ali beating monster Foreman was the bigger win because no one expected him to do it. Frazier-Ali was a huge event that delivered on its promise. In many ways it was a 'win' for both fighters' legacies.
