      Frazier would have to extend his arm a little higher, Ali was 6'3, Klitschko is 6'6.
      Meaning the punch wouldn't have the same effect, meaning yes, they would've gotten up.

        Why show the Brewster fight?
        That proves nothing.
        It proves that Wladimir was not able to continue after being exhausted from brutal body shots. Imagine how exhausted Ali was after 15 rounds of that kind of punishment and he was still able to get up from that left hook.

        The vid also proves Wladimir's inability to clinch while in trouble, atleast in that fight.

        As someone who has read Frazier's autobiography - God forbid that people should do RESEARCH before answering boxing questions, right? - Joe himself admits that, ISTR "it wasn't that great a punch", just that the war of attrition had led to them both being exhausted.
        It's not the best left hook Frazier ever threw like many say but it was a brutal counter that landed right on Ali's jaw.
        There was no real reason for Ali to get up from that punch, he was behind on points and exhausted after taking rounds of punishment to the body and the head.

        I just don't see Lewis and Wladimir get up from that punch. They are too smart.

          Yeah, but he did stand up from the KD in 10 from Peter.

          And let's be frank here. Frazier would get ****ed up by either Lewis or Wlad. He is their type of client.

              I'm not sure if Frazier would lose to Wladimir but Lewis at his best could uppercut Joe's head off.
              Wladimir doesn't have that punch but he did put on a clinic against Brewster (the rematch) who is similar to Frazier. I don't think Brewster was at his best though and he never was that good.

              I heard Ibragimov's trainer Jeff Mayweather say in an interview that Ibragimov will try to make it a brawl on the inside against Wladimir so we will see how Wlad handles that.
              I think Ibragimov is going to get knocked out very quickly.

              Not sure how Frazier would do against Wlad, we will have to wait and see how well he handles pressure the rest of his career, maybe he can erase that ugly loss to Brewster completely.

                Both would have been out cold, The Heavies of this era arent as fit as they were back in the Ali era, They barely could go 12 rounds without breathing through there mouths..If the same left hook land they would be sleeping for minutes especially Wlad who has a china chin.

                  They both would have been out cold. Lewis was Knocked out by Oliver McCall and Hasim Rahman. LOL!! Klitschko is Klitschko he's a knock down machine, but against Frazier no way he would have gotten up.

                    Lewis vs Oliver McCall.


                    That was a brute of a shot aswell Holmes looked out.

                      True. When you consider the standard of each fighters opposition, then Lewis comes out with a lot more credability with regards to his punch resistance.
