    This was discussed in X's thread a bit. Opinions may be divided. How does this one go?

    I repeat, I think we get a classic war here. How does this end if it's a 15 rounder?

    As would I. If you take the Bowe of the first Holy fight vs the Frazier of the first Ali fight, you have one HELLUVA war! And I'd have to favor Joe, as Big Daddy NEVER met a left hook that he didn't eat flush.

    LOL. You didn't have to post the youtube link for me. WMCJ is one of my all time favorite movies. I know it word-for-word.

    Bowe by KO. I think everyone here picking Frazier is literally crazy. It'd be a phonebooth war for the ages while it lasted, though.

    Yeah. Bowe was an exceptionally good inside fighter for a heavyweight. Especially for a big guy.

    Bowe is a good inside fighter for a big man....but it doesn't mean his level of inside fighting is even on par with Joe Frazier...I think its better for Frazier that Bowe will engage him in close quarter combat as opposed to sticking a big jab in his face and following through with right hands..this way Frazier can smack Bowe all night long with left hooks to the face...but we forget that the the Italo Argentina Bonavena gave Frazier some major problems...IMO Bowe is a better fighter then Bonavena was....i don't know...i mean I'm a big fan of the heavyweights from the past but this one is a complete toss up...We have all seen Bowe take a tremendous amount of punishment...i think he could take all the pain that Joe could give him...and Im certain that Bowe could and would hurt Joe Frazier if he were to connect flush...Maybe Joe outworks Bowe and does punish him over 15 rounds but suffers 2 knockdowns himself
