RIP Joe Frazier

A true sporting great. He was treated unfairly by the media and Ali for pretty much all his career, he never lived comfortably this probably helped him to be so tough in the ring, where the depths of pain and endurance he had to go through to see a fight out, such as the Thriller in Manila will be unknown to the heavyweight fighters of today.

There is a superb doc here on Frazier and the Thriller in Manila.
