Tyson has to much in his arsenal and would uppercut Frazier to death and put him to sleep inside 3. Just my opinion.
only beat Ali? first off he had wins over Chuvalo, Bonavena, Buster Mathis, Quarry, Ellis, Bob Fucking Foster, and beat Ali when he was undefeated, the fact that he ONLY lost 4 times and only to two men who are LEGENDS in the Sport (the oldest HW champion in history and the man considered the GREATEST hw champion of all time) there is no question in why Frazier is rated so highly, given the man's size and all that he accomplished with so many handicaps (size, short arms, only weighed about 205, partially blind most his career, dangerously high blood pressure) he was a damn overachiever plain and simple, and Ali and Tyson aren't even on the same level, that's like comparing an iPad and it's Thailand mass produced knockoff
