Smokin Joe Frazier could not win his toughest Fight

Allsports article on the passing of Joe Frazier at the age of 67 from liver cancer. He was one of the best heavy weights back when boxing was the sweet science.

Allsports was going to talk a bit on the Chicago Bears big win in Philadelphia on Monday night to keep their playoff hopes alive, staying one win behind Detroit in the  NFC North.  But sadly with the passing of Joe Frazier I thought I would do something about him.

Frazier passed away last Monday at the age of 67 from liver cancer. Back when he fought, that was when boxing was boxing and it meant something to be the Heavy Weight Champion. Back then you had Muhammad Ali, George Foreman, Jimmy Ellis and Canada’s own George Chuvalo to name a few. Some all out wars took place on the canvas.
