It's a sad day indeed. Joe Frazier was undoubtedly one of the greatest heavyweight boxers of all time. It is a measure of the man that he lost only four professional fights from a total of thirty seven bouts. Two against George Foreman and two against Ali, who he also managed to beat in their first contest. Not bad!
