"I guess he said it to try to scare me, what he didn't know is I'll go into the jungle to fight a lion with a tooth pick." - Joe Frazier
Thank you Joe Frazier for transcending the sport, and acting as a inspiration to so many people. Joe Frazier will always be engrained into the hearts of boxing fans
End of an era, really. For my generation of boxing fans, it's like losing a big part of your life. Frazier was always part of our consciousness.
joe frazier is my fav fighter of all time a champions in and out of the ring who never backed down even when the odds were stacked against him. joe is know as a "fighters fighter" his style is the way a man should fight in the ring the world is simply a poorer place without joe frazier rest in peace CHAMP
I was 6 years old when Frazier first fought Ali. That fight was HUGE for it's day! I still remember the commercial that was running on TV (back then we had only 3 stations ABC, NBC, CBS) When Joe and Ali were talking to each other from phone booths and Ali was making his usual trash talk and when he was finally done, Joe just laughs and hangs up on him. I would love to see that commercial again. Their fight is the reason I became a boxing fan over 40 years ago! Here' to the great Smokin' Joe Frazier! RIP Champ!
