Ali showed in this fight that he had learned all the right lessons from their first fight. In this fight, unlike the first one, Ali clinched with Joe when they were on the ropes. And Ali stayed off the ropes alot more than in the first fight. In the first fight, Joe just teed off on Ali with the left hooks along the ropes. Ali saw to it that this would not happen in this the 2nd fight. More movement from Ali in this fight too. Ali was one of the smartest fighters to step in the Ring.

It was an incredibly tactical, strategic, and well-executed performance of boxing mastery by the great Ali.

This is the most underrated fight of the Trilogy, but it is the one that probably best showcases their respective talents. In the first fight, the ring rust from the layoff showed on Ali as he didn't have the stamina to stave off the ever-charging Frazier for 15 rounds. The third fight, which many call the best of the three, was in slow motion compared to their 1960s heyday. Ali at 225 and Frazier at 215 hardly resembled the fighters who destroyed Cleveland Williams and Buster Mathis. In this fight, Ali has the legs to withstand Frazier's punishment and enough of the old flash to baffle his opponent and steal rounds. Frazier is always Frazier, willing to take three to get in one of his own, but on this night the three by Ali must have stung like a yellow jacket.

The first fight was truly “Fight of the Century” (or one of them) and a war for the ages. Frazier in particular performed FAR better in the first fight than he did here. Sure, Ali performed better in this fight and since you’re clearly an adoring Ali fan that is why you put this fight on a pedestal, but try to be objective and also acknowledge that Frazier performed much more spectacularly in the first fight and that the fight itself was far greater the first time

@@Kassiusday Can't argue with that. He was never the same after returning and as I mentioned not ready for such a big fight at that time. For the first title win, it took him four years to get there and again on his return took him an other four years to get back to his best at that particular age. At the same time, he used his intelligent tactics to win the fights as you mentioned. No can be the same but for age one needs to adjust and adjusts his boxing style and tactics like for Foreman fight he did not dance but went straight at him and also acquired the rope tactics. If any fighter at any point would have done the rope tactics against Foreman he would've knocked him out but Ali was different. He did not keep the distance from Foreman and won all the rounds until knocked him out in the 8th round though he staggered him in the earlier rounds but did not go for the kill as he knew Foreman would no go earlier.

Following his 3 year imposed lay-off , Ali should have waited another year before taking on Frazier . Frazier was at the height of his powers in 1971 ( 1st fight ) and Ali was still very much ring rusty then ; he had lost much of his speed and sharpness because of that lay-off - and crucially , he under-estimated how difficult an opponent Frazier would be. Had they met prior to Ali's ban , there is no question in my mind that Ali would have outpointed Frazier .

Their first fight was in March of 1971 and the Supreme Court didn't hear his case until the summer of 1971. Had the Supreme Court ruled against Ali, it would have been the end of the legal road for him and he most likely would have had to start serving the five year prison sentence that he had been appealing. I agree with you that it would have been better for Ali to,wait another year, but at the time the possibility of that being his only chance to regain his crown was very real.

The most controversial aspect of this fight occurred in the second round (9:08). Ali hurt Frazier with a punch which caused Joe to stagger back, and as Ali was going in for the kill the ref arbitrarily stepped in between the two fighters and sent Ali to his corner. It was obvious that he feared an early KO and because it was such a big event fight, he didn't want it to end so prematurely.

I recently watched the first Ali/Frazier fight, and i'm shocked at how bad Frazier performed in this fight comparatively . Ali wasn't the same as he was in their first fight either, but he was about as you might expect. I'd say Ali was 85 to 90% of what he was in their first fight, but Frazier was only a shell of his former self. I hadn't noticed in the past, how much Frazier had regressed between these fights. He took a terrible pounding despite winning their first fight, and he got hammered by Foreman in between. He had a tough fight with Joe Bugner also, and I'm not sure what other fights he had since the first fight with Ali. Foreman beat the hell out of Frazier, but it only lasted a couple of rounds. Foreman probably only landed 20 punches roughly, but they were bombs. I believe however, that Frazier took more punishment from Ali than he took from Foreman. In their first fight, Ali battered Frazier repeatedly for 15 rounds. Ali was faster and hit harder because of better hand speed, and by the end of the fight he had Frazier's head swollen like a lumpy beach ball. In this fight, .......Frazier looked heavy and slow, and his punches were much weaker than in the first fight. Ali stood in the pocket throwing punches for a longer period because he realized Frazier wasn't as dangerous as he was in 1971. I really believe Joe was damaged goods and never the same after Ali/Frazier #1 in 1971. Both guys were sharp in 1971, and I might be in the minority, but I thought Ali won the first fight despite getting knocked down. Ali was landing combinations all night, Frazier landed good body punches and Joe would catch him with a big left hook fairly often. Frazier's punches were wicked and the crowd responded loudly every time Frazier landed a big hook,....... but Ali was landing solid punches also and landing twice as many as Frazier. I think Ali won all 3 fights with Frazier, and I'm neutral as far as which guy I like better. I like both guys, but I believe that Frazier didn't land the volume of punches that Ali landed, and Ali was fairly consistent each round while Frazier took 4 or 5 rounds to really get 'smoking'.

Ali twisted the fight by clinching Joe's neck systematically. It's a shame he hasn't been heavily sanctioned. It could have been a draw, easily;

Xavier Richard I noticed that referee Richie Pearl wouldn't let Ali to hold Frazier behind the head in their first fight. He was right there to pull his glove off of Frazier's neck, or he barked at Ali to let go. In this fight, it was a totally different story. The referee allowed the same, and is it only a coincidence that Ali won the fight in which he was allowed to hold but lost the fight whereby he was prevented from holding? It makes more difference than people realize. I'm going to check to see if Ali's people requested a change of referee, and, requested this referee specifically. Before I research it, I would wager that they requested this referee;..........they likely knew that he would allow the holding. Do you know if they asked for this referee?

Greatest trilogy in boxing history. There will never, ever be fights like this..Both fighters had the style to both hurt and neutralize each other. Stylistically, it was the perfect match-up to bring out the best in each other and make great fights which it did. Ali needed Joe to take him into deep water, to test him to his limit--to bring out his further greatness. Joe also, who fought great himself, in loss--especially the 3rd. This fight was much closer than perceived. Ali really did hurt Frazier with that right in the 2nd. It buckled his knees and any time you can get Frazier to retreat, you have done something. I think Joe had already recovered before Perez halted the round. But in the early stages of the fight, Ali was missing with a lot of punches. Eventually, Ali had some huge moments and flurries. RIP Smokin' Joe Frazier and RIP in Muhammad Ali. The memories you left us are timeless.

This is how the first fight should have gone. I would have loved to see a real prime Ali without any lay off. I reckon he would have finished undefeated hands down. It was a shame how his boxing career ended. But for it to end like that and still be considered the greatest boxer of all time just goes to show what kind of a fighter he was. Beat the best out there and avenged losses. That's a real champion
@trickydick61525 жыл бұрын
But the first fight would have gone like the second had Alì decided to take more time for training n instead of just 3 months. Fact is that he was afraid his licence might be revoked again. I had seen this match in the '80's and didn't remember how Alì could sustain his footwork for almost the entire fight: something he was unable to do in the first fight. And footwork against Frazier was something he couldn't do without.

They did, both were at their best in 1971. Ali fans claim he was much better in his early years but that's a myth. He had easier fights and was a bit faster probably but the Ali in 1971 was stronger. Frazier would have KO'D the young Ali. Ali wasn't in good shape very often the 2nd half of his career which cost him a lot. The performance in 1971, despite that he lost, was the best of his career IMO. Keep in mind both fights with Liston were fixed. Had he fought Liston at 22 in a real fight his career would have been different. Liston would have crushed Ali, just like he crushed all others. Liston was the best HW ever IMO.

Andre Ward and Timothy Bradley are excellent commentators, especially since they’re former great boxers themselves. Max Kellerman is also an amazingly knowledgeable and intelligent commentator as a true boxing connoisseur and historian. So long story short, you’re a casual if you’re dissing commentators like these. There are some terrible commentators these days as well, but that’s always been the case. Can’t fucking stand Bernardo Osuna for example... ugh. Some of the British commentators they’ve got these days are utterly atrocious as well

I once watched a documentary on Ali. It covered the Frazier trilogy. It spent like 30 minutes between the first and third fights. The second fight they played off like it was nothing more than a footnote. They only talked about it for 30 seconds, showed no footage of the fight, said it was uninteresting, and that Ali won easily. But this was a really competitive fight. Frazier wins two of the middle rounds in a row, and almost evens the scorecards going into the last third of the bout. I think this bout deserves more credit then what it receives. It’s simply overshadowed by the first and third bouts because it’s a non title fight. But it’s much better than what everyone leads on about it. Frazier also did much better than we’re lead to believe. It’s a great prelude to the epic conclusion that follows.
