Best Heavyweight physique in boxing history

That is impressive. I know people were in awe of Tank Abbott benchpressing 600, but from what I gather (again, not a weightlifter at all) 400 still seems pretty damn good.

 

ok

 

JOM is a large guy

That motherfucker ain't small

Lol, sure thing "Jiffy"

 

At least Frazier’s lack of lifting ability wasn’t nearly as bad as his swimming.

 

The reason Frazier couldnt do anything else was because he only had one good arm and that one arm couldn’t be straightened fully.

Frazier was a small guy with unending stamina and one good arm. That worked against a rusty overconfident Ali but he’s lucky he didn’t have to fight more two handed punchers

 

Ali was clearly awful and his opponents were shite, especially the ones that beat him

 

Sly is torn between 3 competing ideologies

1) Ali is god

2) Right now/recently is the best time ever for boxing because Floyd

3) Frazier and Norton are chinny Uncle Toms who sucked

Each is undermined by the other so Sly has to make extravagant, often ludicrous statements to try and justify their coexistence

So, for example

"AJ kills Frazier... today's boxers are the biggest, fastest and strongest with the best training and nutrition... Frazier was awful, he was tiny and had one arm and Amir Khan's chin ... Also, Ali befuddles and stops AJ"

Sly justifies all this by greatly exaggerating the difference in quality of Ali as a fighter in 1967 vs 1971 (while blatantly ignoring that post-exile Ali had some advantages over Ali 1.0, in particular he was a stronger and sturdier man, which certainly helps against Frazier) and by completely avoiding the very obvious fact that Ali 2.0 faced much stiffer comp ... by choosing to essentially end Ali's career in 1967 and avoid any in depth analysis of that portion of the career, Sly creates a video game fantasy of the man he can casually allude to whenever anyone points out the paradox of elevating Ali to deity while giving the impression you'd give Joe Hipp a realistic shot at defeating his defining rival and one whom he can trot out to beat AJ and wald pussy and all these other guys of recent vintage he hypes to the heavens in order to indirectly benefit his second favorite - Floyd ... of course it is complete nonsense

His assessment of Frazier is transparently rooted in a combination of the same ironic racism that Ali himself perpetrated on Frazier, the anger over Frazier defeating Ali in the biggest fight in history and all of the heavy symbolism that defeat entailed and more shallowly, the need to elevate the good new days and denigrate the old for Floyd's sake

 

Never seen so much ridiculous psychobabble in all my days.

 

It's spot on

The way Frazier is often portrayed in the sanitized, Hauser-style Ali saga, he might as well be a 16th century white Dutch slave trader

 

In other news, this is how Canelo boosts his confidence whenever he's feeling down:

 

this thread needs less talking, more pictures of hot boxers' bodies

 

How about Morrison?
