If both were in their prime who wins: Joe Frazier vs. Larry Holmes?

Frazier in a 15 round decision. Holmes would bloody Frazier with his amazing jab (best ever for a heavyweight, IMO) but he would not land enough big shots and Frazier would control the fight.

Sounds about right. Holmes would hurt him, but I could see Frazier moving inside the jabs and working him over.

Frazier in 10. He just seemed like a more complete boxer than Holmes, and had sneaky power.
