Learning new things is exciting.
Did you know he could not straighten his left arm?
No I didnt. I'll have to watch a bit of him now. Interesting. In a way therefore his left hook was always in punching position then.

There are a few people in the Hall that do not belong. But the bottom line is the HOF makes its money by all the induction ceremonies. I'm pretty sure we will see people like Morrison, Douglas, Swank or Eastwood in the future who should not be there either. But I have always thought Frazier was overrated and really shined because of Ali.

Yes that is why it was a damaging punch.
