Joe Frazier's Last Battle



The only opponent, that could take down the former heavyweight champion,  Joe Frazier, was his long battle with liver cancer. Remembered for his epic battle with the legend Muhammad Ali three times, including the famous "Thrilla in Manila" fight in 1975. Muhammad Ali, could only say great words of admiration  when reflecting on the great times he had with his friend. Alongside Muhammad Ali,  they are the two most recognizable faces in boxing. For me,when you mention  greats, you can't mention this sport without mentioning this man, Joe Frazier, and his contribution to the sport. He brought flare and excitement to his fans . We will diffidently remember him and honor him, as being one of  boxing true greats. Thanks for the memories. R.I.P Champ.
