Joe Frazier Dies

I'm sorry for your loss. I know hubby will be sad to hear this.
Truly great at what he did.
The loss of any master is sad. Rest in peace Joe Frazier. A great athlete.

 

RIP Joe. Thanks for your ring time.

 

He is certainly made his mark on pugilistics. RIP Joe!!

With respect to Joe, Ali said, "He's the great fighter of all time, next to me.
Also speaking of Ali, Joe made a good nemesis for him..
I think Joe caught Ali a little off his game, in their first fight.
As I recall, Ali beat Frazier in both their rematch and rubber match bouts.

 

I'm not exactly a fan of boxing, but I've always admired Joe Frazier for his goodness and decency.

Rest in peace and rock on, Smokin' Joe!

The first Ali-Frazier fight was a classic, with a lot of political and racial overtones. I recall driving 50 miles to Roanoke, Va as a college student to watch it as a pay-per-view event. I had great respect for both men. Rest in peace, Joe.
