This is a serious topic. Frazier is too small and not slick enough to beat McCline. McCline would just push him around and overpower him. I think he wins by mid round KO. Peter is bigger, stronger and has a better chin than Frazier.
frazier is overrated just like most old school fighters...still mccline sucks...i would say frazier wins in late rounds after a gassed out mccline quits
. Frazier wins when McCline quits on his stool after the 1st round. McCline shits himself at the thought of having to fight another round with Joe and stays on his stool.
This is stupid. How come Joe Frazier is too small to beat McCline when Chris Byrd, who isn't 1/10 the fighter Frazier was, isn't?
That is the key. frazier was in trouble when strfong guys pushed him back and were able to take off his balance (Foreman, Bonavena) and that is why I think the big modern guys would usually trouble him. McCline however has the tendency of walking backwards, which would suit Frazier perfectly
I think he's already on meds to prevent that. They probably even have a cork rammed up his rectum for extra insurance.
:bears: :bears: Not to mention that Frazier was a more , powerfull ,stronger fighter then Byrd could ever hope to be. Frazier batters Mcline and stops him mid fight.
Jesus. That makes this thread even worse. For future reference, when you start an absolutely stupid thread, don't write this, because then later on, you can't say, "oh, I was just joking around." Chris Byrd: Middleweight Bronze Medalist who debuted at 170 (not too small) Joe Frazier: Heavyweight Gold Medalist who debuted at 203, (too small) :doh:
McCline's problem is that he's a 270 lb guy who wants to fight like he's 160. I've never seen such a physically imposing guy who fights that scared. What's REALLY amazing is his doing 5 years in the pen. Can you imagine how much he got punked in prison?
i was thinkin the same thing !!! i think wht saved him must have been his keeping his mouth shut and letting his size speak for itself.
Okay, here's a Mythical Matchup. If Esteban DeJesus and Jameel McCline were cellmates, who'd be sleeping in the top bunk?
. I was at that fight and was gonna say that. They are both good friends (Byrd and McCline). At that point in his career McCline was not very good despite his size. GS
