Once again Ali takes time out of his important schedule just to insult Joe Frazier infront of the world.........
I like Ali and I'll miss him when he was gone but the things he's said and done to Frazier over the years are some of the lowest **** I've seen in this sport. If it wasn't for Frazier, Ali may have never been allowed to box again. And Frazier supported his ass while he was poor and banned from the sport. It's no wonder Frazier still hates him. -
I don't think Joe hates him bro, I mean I guess I know what you saying but I don't think he really hates him. even back then Muhammed Ali gave Frazier ultimate respect after the 3rd fight and solidified his respect for him.. just my 2 cents bro, I think Joe in his heart of heart loves and feels bad for Ali. I say this because I have heard many times Joe talk great about Ali, he'll remember the past but he isn't living in it u know.Comment

It's strange. I've heard Joe talk fondly of Muhammad but I've also seen him talk very badly about him. Recently (within the past few months) there was a boxingscene.com video interview with him on here, I'll try to dig up where Joe goe sout of his way to make fun of Muhammad's current condition. Saying something like "now you know who won them fights."Comment

The 3rd fight? It's not like the score mattered. I had it 1-3 for Ali, 4-9 for Frazier, and then 10-13 for Ali. Something like that. I know you didn't ask, but I'd thought I share. I know the first 3 rounds for Ali, the middle rounds for frazier, and then the late ones for Ali.
It's the best heavyweight fight I've seen. Bowe-Holyfield 1 comes close, but Ali-Frazier 3 was remarkable.Comment

Scroll down to 1/28/08. On "Beyond the Glory" they talk of Joe making nice with Muhammad, mutual friends agreed to get them to meet in public at a Laker's game. Joe and Muhammad talked backstage and ende dup crying in each other's arms. Joe talks fondly of Muhammad then, but then you see stuff like that interview.
I think what it means when Frazier says these things is that he wants to forgive Muhammad, but deep down he can't.Comment

Not sure of my exact score because I haven't watched in in quite a while. But like Warp, I scored the early rounds for Ali, Joe cranked it up in the 4th or 5th and kept winning rounds until he slowed down in the 10th, Ali won 10-14 until it was stopped. Joe was blind after the 10th or 11th round and couldn't see ****. He fought for years with horrible eyesight, he'd put in contacts and they'd just get knocked out.
Never stopped him from giving his all though. (See Frazier/Foreman for that)
