After a brief battle with liver cancer, former heavyweight champion, Smokin' Joe Frazier, succumbed to the disease and passed away last night. He was 67. He was transferred to a hospice at the beginning of the week.
Most will remember Joe for his epic battles with Muhammed Ali including the "Thrilla in Manila". He was the first man to ever beat Ali in March of 1971.
