    Frazier gave Ali brain damage. Isn't that enough of a payback?

        If I were Fraizer I'd hate Ali too.

        Called him an Uncle Tom over and over. That's a hateful thing to say to a black man, especially at that time.

          Joe desered his win, Ali deserved the win in the 2nd fight and i thought the corner retirement was appropriate in their last and Joe most likely would got stopped if allowed to continue, i think Ali was up anyway at least for me tho it was close.

          Joe was particuarly pissed at the Uncle Tom comment coz he didnt know what it ment. He thought he was being called a Peeping Tom! lol

            why do you always end your responses with ......Lefty?

Ali still fought Frazier a second time after he lost the belt to Foreman. the third time he gave Frazier another title shot. I think Ali was trying to hype the fight and get inside Fraziers head and did it alittle too much....What do you think aobut Joe stating he won all three fights...Lefty
              bull****. Ali was just a **** and you can't blame Frazier for having such animosity towards him.
              looks like Frazier got the last laugh though.. while he can talk right and carry on like a normal person everyday, Ali can't and looks ******ed.

              take notes people.. this is life telling you not to be such an arrogant ****.

                Maad props to Joe Frazier. I understand his frustration. The only time when Joe Frazier is mentioned is when it's attached to ALi or Foreman. It's like he's forever embedded in other people's shadows.

                Me personally, i like Joe Frazier for his boxing ability. Not just an opponent to the greatest
