And props to Floyd Mayweather for offering to pay for Frazier's funeral. That gesture harks back to a different time and different men, too, if you recall Max Schmeling paying for Joe Louis's funeral and burial . . .
A good read. Thanks!
He was born in 1944—he was 67, not 62.
Overall Frazier survived all the punches much better over the years vs. Ali obviously. I think that Larry Holmes pummeling fight taken to Ali was really damaging in the long haul.
