Who's Number 1: "Greatest Fights"

[The Troll]

ali-frazier 3 was waaaaaaaay better then 1

I hate when people say that. Apart from the fact the bout has less buildup, interest, and significance, both Frazier and Ali were faded fighters by 1975. Fighters like Frazier relying on headmovement and pressure to win fights have short peaks, for them losing just a half step means everything.

Frazier Ali 1975 was a very good fight and a closer fight but it is not the "Fight of the Century."

A punch that would have before been slipped and countered with a left hook or a good combo now lands, lands maybe twice or 3 times, your trying then to counter that second or third punch, your frantic, a step behind, your timing and rythym are thrown off kilter and you cannot "smoke."
