Boxing Legend Joe Frazier sadly died last night from cancer. According to TMZ, former heavyweight,boxing legend “Smokin” Joe Frazier kicked the bucket last night after losing to his latest bout with cancer. He was diagnosed with liver cancer last month. They say Joe died at his home in Philadelphia last night,and was surrounded by his family at the time.
Back in his glory days, Joe fought the great Muhammad Ali three times in the 70s ,and beat him in 1971. Their last fight was the legendary “Thrilla in Manilla.” Joe was 67 years old when he died. Joe was both an Olympic and Undisputed World Heavyweight boxing champion. His pro boxing career lasted from 1965 to 1976, with a brief comeback in 1981.
Frazier’s boxing style was often compared to Henry Armstrong and occasionally Rocky Marciano. He liked to bob, weave, grunt,and snort as he grimaced with all out aggression wearing down his opponents with relentless pressure. His best known punch was a powerful left hook, which accounted for most of his knockouts. Follow us on Facebook by Clicking Here. Follow us on Twitter by Clicking Here.
