"Thrilla in Manilla"
Boxing great Joe Frazier in serious condition with liver cancer.
Me and my friend, Paul Brooks, went to see this fight in Athens, Ga. Pay per view. We were part of a big crowd, a beer guzzling crowd. And me and Paul had our share of tall boys. The beers were 48 oz. ( Maybe time exaggerates but they were the biggest cups I've ever drunk out of ). And we swilled more than a few. And we cheered for Muhammed Ali.
It's a sad story but just goes to show death's inevitability. And you can't take it with you.
