'Smokin Joe' Frazier

'Lil' Joe,

After dismantling and crashing Muhammad Ali in March 1971, Joe was really not interested in
continuing with Boxing anymore.

Bouts with;
Floyd Patterson, Jimmy Ellis, Jose L. Urtain and Jerry Quarry were discussed for late-1971 and 1972.

Experts agree, had 'Smokin Joe' retired in mid-1972, he would have been considered as one of the
Top 5 Heavyweights of All Time.
