      when comparing their impact on boxing and the owrld as a whole, hopkins is a spoonful, and frazier is a five gallon bucket.

        ali's health is such that it is no guarantee that he can make it out there.

          it's about time. joe frazier's role in the greatest ever era for boxing is being forgotten. he beat muhammad ali in the fight of the century. it was a well contested, but clear decision. he even put ali on the canvas. it was not the other way around.


          For all you young ones!

              beating Apollo creed apparently is worth more than being the guy who beat Ali in arguably most important fight ever.

                  I hope they put it at the big entrance of the sport complex.

                    Took long enough! I wish Frazier could have seen it in his lifetime. But if Frazier deserves one, so does Hopkins.
