^^^^^^^^^

Hagler wasn't a swarmer and his chin is generally regarded as one of the finest in boxing history.

Hagler wasn't a swarmer and his chin is generally regarded as one of the finest in boxing history.

He fought like a swarmer against Hearns.

Yes we need to look at other elements like chin, heart, stamina, etc. It's not as simple as saying "all swarmers get killed by punchers" boxing is more complex than that.

[Left Hook Tua]

Size doesn't really favour Tyson, he was about 1-2 inches shorter and almost the same weight, about 220 to 215. In everything else, Tyson was clearly much superior and would likely KO him, since Fraizer didn't tie up much. So it wouldn't be a Bonecrusher Smith sort of fight.

certainly their height and reach was somewhat similar but tyson was a lot bigger imo.

prime frazier was 200-205. so mike got 15 or so lbs. on him.

15 lbs. is a lot.

15 lbs. between big 6'5-6'7 super heavyweights might not be much but for 5'10-5'11 smallish heavyweights 15 lbs. matters imo.

If Frasier had use of both of his eyes then it would be 50/50, but as is in both Primes, Tyson would KO him in the 7th.

Frazier had the use of both eyes against Foreman,and it didn't stop his chin from being exposed.

And some pushing just to add to that, every time Frazier got close enough to unload on a left hook Foreman pushed him.

Every watch Foreman/Qawi? Qawi literally just quits in there after so much pushing. He couldnt handle not being able to get close because george kept shoving him, preventing him from doing his best work. It was hilarious. Big George and his shoving.

I made this video of Tyson vs fraizer on fight night champion. Joe whooped my ass. Either I suck at this game or he is that damn good.

I can't believe everyone is overwhelmingly picking Tyson. Tyson does not fight like George Foreman, Frazier wouldn't face the same problems. If Frazier gets inside, he is immeasurably better there than Tyson and would hurt him.

I'm not saying that predicting Tyson to win is crazy or wrong, I understand the prediction, but I fail to see how it's a blowout in Tyson's favor.

thats what im shocked by. tyson has all the physical advantages but not in droves and frazier has stronger heart and will.
