Eddie futch pulled Frazier out the fight at the end of the 14th round because he could no longer see and had started to take some heavy punishment .. but it hadn't stopped him dishing it out.... Frazier NEVER spoke to Futch ever again ... Ali openly admits it was the closest he's ever been to death in his whole entire life and he'd asked angelo dundee to cut his gloves off after round 14 ... he'd quit and decided he couldn't continue .... he looked across the ring and saw the ref waiving it off with Frazier being pulled out then collapsed in the ring .... both men gave every ounce they had that night and basicaly fought to a standstill
