Too soon?
Prayers sent.
Had no idea about the purpose of a "hospice". Sad end.
Here is something that was revealed in that special which I did not know;
Frazier was partially blind in his left eye from a sparring accident in 1968......he fought most of his pro career including all 3 Ali bouts pretty much with 1 eye.
In the final Ali fight by round 10 his good eye was swollen shut and he basically couldn't see the shots coming at him.
Just stood there toe to toe and traded punches anyway.
Heart.....
RIP Joe.
