Joe Frezier: Mohammed Ali Attends Joe Frazier's Funeral

 

Boxing great Muhammad Ali today paid his respects to former heavyweight champion Joe Frazier at his funeral.

Frazier, who died last Monday, was the first man to beat Ali - knocking him down and taking a decision in the so-called 'Fight of the Century' in 1971 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. He would go on to lose two more fights to Ali, including the epic ‘Thrilla in Manila’ bout in 1975. Ali called it the ‘closest thing to dying that I know of’. www.mannastores.com
