Favorite HW of all time, it's his demeanor in the ring that I liked most, the fact that he didn't care whether he was landing cleanly or not as long as he was touching you.

Joe Frazier is such a huge part of what made so many of us fall in love with Boxing. Watching it still gives me chills. The title all time great is thrown around pretty loose these days.

Frazier's performance that night was proof positive that it is the intangible things like heart and determination that separate great fighters from very good ones.
