    I didn't even get to the part where he mentions Joe Frazier. I sincerely hope these "boxing writers" aren't getting paid, does the head in that these types could actually gain from such trash.

    but who did Frazier beat besides Ali and then got whipped twice by Ali after that? OK Jimmy Ellis, Quarry, Bugner....he got blasted by Foreman TWICE. Not really sure off of the MSG 1971 fight with Ali if that performance is enough to get him in the Hall. Its like Gene Tunney beating Dempsey twice.......thats about all he ever did, so does it get him in?

    "whipped" not sure thats the term here since I usually take that as one dude dominated, and really if frazier got whipped then so did ali...

    Ha i agree

    Joe Frazier is the most overrated HW in history

    He is over rated because he took part in an over rated era and won one fight of any note

    he was around in the right place at the right time

    he would struggle to become cruiserweight world champ nowadays

    Joe was the undisputed champion during Ali’s exile and he beat some good fighters. He won the greatest ever fight in history and should be respected.

    Joe was shorter than a lot of fighters, not exactly build for speed either, but he had heart and power.
    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.
