Biloxi23 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I HATE to hear that. I always thought Joe would have been the toughest man alive in a no rules alley fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Murphy Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I am sorry to hear that. He has seen a lot of tragedy in the past few years. My heart goes out to him. I drive by his what was his old gym just about every day. When it was open, he sometimes came out and chatted with my co-workers. Everyone loved him.

ima45dv8 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 f*#k me.... He was one tough bastard. I've avoided this thread in an attempt to ignore the impending doom he awaited. Didn't work. God Speed, Joe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2alpha Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) He was a tough guy, accomplished a lot, gained respect and love from a lot of people. He did well. Most people would probably like to live a little longer but from the sound of it he didn't suffer too long. Every life comes with a death sentence. Walter White.

mikegot38 Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I met "Mr. Frazier" when I was a kid. I was spending the day with my Dad at the Courthouse when he stopped by. I was star stuck. He treated me nicely and I rooted for him when he fought Ali. It is the beginning of the end of a great boxing era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
