    Yep.
    Joe Frazier didn't sugar coat it. Said it how he felt it. Can't really fault him for that.

    This is true.
    Frazier's speech was basically incomprensible in those last 10 years or so too. Both those guys were badly damaged.

    Fullmer vs Dick Tiger. Fullmer's last 3 fights, were against Tiger for the MW title,and (1)Fullmer lost by decision, (2)drew w/ Tiger, and (3)retired after 7 rounds. Interesting that Tiger at 34 yrs old, was one year older than Fullmer.

    That is probably because Ali was the one dishing out all the abuse on Joe during those years. In front of millions of people. I think anyone who walked in Frazier`s shoes would naturally be bitter. Joe had every right.

    Junior Jones was Barrera's nemesis.
    I'm not sure Barrera ever really came to terms with that.
