Ali vs Frazier: should a fighter dance or destroy?

← All debates · Talk to Caleb

MUHAMMAD ALI vs JOE FRAZIER go head to head — and every jab is rooted in real history.

MUHAMMAD ALI

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, Joe. You can't hit what your eyes can't catch.

JOE FRAZIER

All that dancing, Champ, and I still put you on the canvas in the Garden. Pretty feet don't take a punch.

MUHAMMAD ALI

You marched forward all night into my jab because it's the only direction you knew how to go.

JOE FRAZIER

And I kept coming, and kept coming, because a real fighter closes the distance while a showman runs from it.
