    Dempsey vs. Frazier

    I have been re-visiting Frazier. And I have actually changed my mind.

    I think Dempsey stops him.

    True, Frazier carries A LOT more size. And he had a greater career.

    But watching the film, I don't know if that size is enough. Dempsey takes off like a rocket ship, while Joe needed to let the engine warm-up first.

    I don't think Frazier's size makes much of a difference, and lesser punchers than Dempsey hurt Joe early.

    Even IF Joe survives, Dempsey was girtier and craftier than Bonavena. SMaller, but more evasive and cagier. But again, I think this one is done inside of 5 rounds. Frazier's size simply means he that prolonged of a beating, instead of getting laid out in the opening stanza.

    Dempsey is too sloppy and wild with wide punches.
    Frazier too much head movement. Maybe Dempsey could land something but that’s a big maybe.
    Smh and people think Deontay Wilder is crude Dempsey is prehistoric which is why Tunney a smaller fighter took him to school. Yes I know long count like I said maybe Dempsey could land something maybe.

      This is why late-term ******** is a thing.

              It's cute how you keep trying.

              But still, we'd all be better off if it ended for you in a warm saline bath.

                I am wondering why the people picking Frazier by KO aren't explaining their pick.

                He wasn't know for KO power. He shared the ring with Bonavena for 30 rounds and never got a KO.

                  One of the tougher fights to forecast. One thing that does seem crystal clear is that Dempsey will have to win early to win at all. Once Joe is chugging and warmed up he has more stamina than a plow horse. This might happen as Dempsey begins to tire and slow.

                  NOTE: It is a tacit policy of mythical matchups that both fighters enter the ring in their primes and at their best, unless otherwise stated. It eliminates speculation that ol' & so might not have trained up to the match.

                  Therefore, in this match it is the Frazier who beat Clay versus the Dempsey that beat Willard.
