Another athlete from my youth has passed away. I remember his fight with Big George. RIP.

I remember him as a good man.
Rest in Peace, Mr. Lyle.

IIRC, Lyle was the one who learned boxing while in a Colorado prison. He was that perpetual underdog you tended to root for. He lived longer than Joe Frazier.

Foreman-Lyle was a match for the ages. Each had the other beat in damn near every other round...even in the same round. Absolute war thru the end.

Wow, now there’s a name you don’t hear much anymore. R.I.P.
