    Smoking Joe Frazier in hospice..sad
    Man ..you know your moving up the death line when you see sports heros from your childhood drop off. Smokin Joe has liver cancer and is given weeks to live. I remember the classics with Ali before most of you guys were born. Boxing had some great matches from 1970 to late 80's. To me some of boxings best matches. Sad to see Joe go.

    My son and I had the chance to meet him last year and he was super cool. I had an Olympic picture of him holding up his gold medal for him to sign and he got pretty excited when he saw it. He told his whole entourage to come check it out. He said winning the gold for U.S. was the highlight of his life.
