Yep, he greets both Rocky and Appolo in the ring before their fight. Appolo and Joe talk **** to each other just like Joe and Muhammad would.
I'm a huge fan of Frazier as well. I think Joe is pure hell for anyone around 210 pounds and below and is particularly a matchup nightmare for...

Well, had Norton rightfully got the decision, Leon Spinks likely doesn't become a world champion and Ali maybe doesn't become a 3 time heavyweight...
