- Smokin' Joe Frazier vs. Muhammad Ali 1 Billed as The Fight of the Century.
Joe Frazier looks to defend his heavyweight title against the man who never lost it in the ring Muhammad Ali to decide who is the true champion. This was Ali's third fight in his comeback after his 3 year ban from boxing. He defeated Jerry Quarry and Oscar Bonavena by stoppage in his previous 2 bouts who were top ranked contender who also both lost to Frazier. This was billed and proved to be one of the greatest fights of all time.
The fight was put together using 2 different broadcasts to keep the action as best quality as possible with no inturruptions. Audio has been synced to the footage as best as possible. Round 10 has the only issue where the fight has to be switched to lower quality broadcast for around 2 minutes as they did not display the full round 10 in my version.
The quality was made possible by ESPN's 50th anniversary Fight of the Century documentation. Also thanks to Samir Belhamra for his colorization of the iconic image I have used as my thumbnail. - Спорт

I'm currently feeling a lot of gratitude for being able to watch two greats, who's legacy and will defined each other, throw hands. Especially the care given to upscaling the quality and resolution of this footage. It brings more things into a clearer light, Ali's ability to absorb and react, Frazier's perpetual and unreadable motion. Beautiful. Thank you.
Even a century later, this fight still remains great and still remembered. Wow!
I was in the 9th grade. 14 years old when this fight took place
It was more then a fight a great event. Thats all anyone talked about before and after this great fight. Frazier and Ali very brave fighters
I Don’t Know Why People Refer To This Fight As Ali vs Frazier. This Fight Should Always Be Titled Frazier vs Ali Because Frazier Was The Defending Champion And That’s How This Fight Was Billed!!!
I did originally title it Fraizer vs Ali but swapped it around after a few weeks in hopes of more views
Being that at the time Ali was still kind of the champion himself, he also hadn't been defeated, and honestly when you put Ali's name first it just kind of sounds better😅

@@SilverSmurphy When The Fight First Came Out It Was Historically Billed As Frazier vs Ali That’s How It Should Remain For Historical Accuracy
@@youtoo2233That’s A Matter Of Opinion I Like Frazier’s Name First In This Fight
Dundee later said that it was a mistake to send Ali against Frazier after just six months of his comeback and only two fights. He said they should have waited a year and had four fights. Frazier really came on in this fight after round 3. How Ali stayed up in that 11th round is amazing.
True 👍
That was great technical mistake
Great quality man ❤
This is beautiful
Amazing performance by Frazier, Ali just slightly less so
It was a tough fight to score but the knockdown in the last round settled my scoring beyond doubt, Joe deserved to win, Ali hit him with everything early but couldn't stop him. It just makes you think about how much power Foreman had to demolish Joe so quickly later on.
Great fight two Real champion
Ali not moving around the ring like he did when he was younger, probably trying to conserve energy for a very possible long fight. If he had trained like he did against Liston in their first fight he probably would have won. He also lost a couple of rounds by laying on the ropes and letting Frazier go to town at will. Ali couldn't figure out Frazier's left hook in this fight and paid the price dearly. That said, Frazier's face at the end looked like it had been through a meat grinder. But overall magnificent fight by Frazier, Ali just slightly less so
dang round 11 was crazy. This fight was so back and forth. round 15 ali lost. ali got more head contact, but frazier had the more impactful hits.
Did anyone catch that? Arthur Mercante, the referee, was also one of the three judges? How?
Happened alot back then, Still happens now but only on early card fights.

Hey Smurphy when are you going to upload new videos? Your channel has the best quality fights I ever seen. You're going to get more views as you upload more.
Im going to upload a AI upscaled Gatti vs Ward fight but it looks weird but apart from that I dont have a motive as you dont get paid for posting fights.
@@SilverSmurphy cool!
How did Ali stay standing with 1:35 left in the fight when Frazier hit him with that out-of-this-world thunderous right hand? There aren't many boxers in history that could have stayed upright after that blow.
It was a left hook, not a right hand blow!
Joe fight in the same pattern: up and down head movement, throwing 1 or 2 punches, repeating Joe's punch angles are wide hooks, straight jabs, a duck, and back to repeating the coming forward up and down head movement.
Ali fights like this. Ali clinched a lot and bounced too much. He had hands down low often and used head movement, but not the way moderns used it, which was head blocking with hands. Also, Ali and Joe both fought in straight lines, along with missing multiple angles and timing. and these guys don't fight as smart
Tillis didn't get hit as easy as Ali did either since Tillis fought smarter and had real defense with his hands unlike alike where he just landed his headback
marvis also didn't fight as simple as dad and had more to his craft
Frazier was never the same after this..
As Ali softened him 😮😊😂
Frazier got great punishment here and got damaged

La qualité du 10eme round n est pas la meme que les autres ! Pourquoi?merci du partage
My best boxer Joe freezer
Bei Ali ist alles rudimentär . Aber die Proportionen stimmen bis zur Vollkommenheit .
Ali still the best
Not only the best but a legendary once in a lifetime figure. My girl Rebekah lol
Is Ali the underdog
Ali was a slight underdog since he only recently came back from his ban
Is Joe short
No not really, about 5'11, Ali is 6'3
Stop talking😂
Joe won this fight no doubt.
Frazier was much better
Frazier won the fight. What does he have to do to achieve the claim he truly deserves for defeating "the greatest of all time?"
Ali had ring rust 3 years out of boxing
Frazier champion . Alì jocker
