On the second fight, Frazier tried to be cute (turned boxer) ... he had enough of pressure-fighting Foremen ... and, though he gave a good effort and made it to Round 5, when he got floored again and Foreman started finding him, he sure wasn't protesting that stoppage

That's when fighters were fighters, To be the best you had to beat the best. Frazier didn't have to fight Ali the first time as Ali was still exiled from boxing. Frazier helped Ali get his license back to fight him to prove he deserved the crown. It's not like that anymore in boxing or dogs, folks skirt around quality opposition to maintain their status that's why the dogs on the PBB DOY list are so respected along with their camps, they go after the best to prove they're the best. Even the camps and dogs who came up short have the upmost respect for giving it an honest go
