Ali and Frazier

By Randy De La O

Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier, or if you prefer, Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali. It really doesn't matter Either way it still adds up to the greatest rivalry in boxing's storied history, maybe even in all of sports!

I read once that they weren't just fighting for the heavyweight championship, they were fighting for the championship of each other These great champions were created for each other They were forged long ago in some fiery heavenly furnace and put here on Earth to do battle with each other. They brought out the very best and the very worst in each other They thrilled us, they captivated us and they enchanted us and we loved them for it all!
