    (Fantasy Bout) Prime Tyson vs Frazier

    I've went through this fight over and over in my head. I have no doubt that Ali would frustrate Tyson, but I think Tyson would beat Frazier. Anyone who knows anything about boxing knows that Frazier's left hook was lethal. The reason I think Tyson would have won that fight is not only because of how Foreman handled Frazier, but also what Tyson brought to the table.

    Keep in mind I am talking about "PRIME" Tyson. The Tyson that fought Michael Spinks was incredible. Two fighters with similar styles except I think Tyson was quicker, harder to hit, and had more of a variety of weapons. What a fight this would have been.

    Joe Frazier by K.O. My opinion is, he will outlast Tyson and then stop him late.

      Point well taken Dominicano. My only problem with that is we are talking about two sluggers. I understand that Frazier fought in the days of 15 round fights, but do you really think it would go the distance with these two? I think somebody goes to sleep very early in this fight.

          True but Frazier is known to get up. Pushing isn't allowed, Foreman took advantage of that, it wouldn't surprise me to see Frazier get floored but best believe he'll get up. Tyson isn't the puncher Foreman was. I don't think either will get stopped early, we're talking about two of the most durable H.Ws of all time, I see this as a late stoppage for Frazier.
