Ali just abuses him in that fight
And thats the old Ali
Ali would destroy Tyson
Totally disagree Tyson has better defense than Frazier, puts combos together, etc. Frazier has bigger heart. But to say Frazier is superior fighter is way off the mark IMO.
Tyson had a terrible defense,it was two hands high at all times with no nuance what so ever
With the variation of the Philly crab that Frazier fought in you could change it up,two hand high your stuck,which is why when Tysons foot speed was shot,so was he. That guards relatively easy to beat

Thats total nonsense i see Tyson avoid 10 punches in a row then spark the other guy out. Tyson had terrible defense are you kidding me ??

Frazier used to get caught all the time in fights, he used to bob and weaver but not throw any punches, Tyson would bob a weave 3 or 4 times then land his punches, Frazier's defense is nowhere near as good as Tyson's.
