Farewell, Joe Frazier
Nov. 8th, 2011 07:30 amI was and am a fan of Muhammad Ali. Hell of a fighter, hell of a human being.
Someone that big needed a nemesis as big. And that was Joe Frazier.
Smokin' Joe. One of the hardest hitters the boxing game had ever seen. Hard enough to break Ali's jaw. Hard enough to put Ali down.
And hard enough to make Ali reach inside himself as never before to come back and beat him.
Their three bouts became the stuff of legend. Especially the Thrilla in Manila. What a frickin' match.
Joe Frazier has passed away at the age of 67. Condolences to his friends and family. He had a huge life, and will not be forgotten.
