Smokin’ Joe

We mourn the death of boxing great, Joe “Smokin’ Joe” Frazier (1944-2011), but reflect on days gone by when the legend himself came to a BWCC networking mixer, held at the Laurel Sport Fit. Frazier is famous for his trilogy of fights with Muhammad Ali, of which their third bout, the “Thrilla In Manila” has been considered by many to be boxing's greatest bout ever.

These pictures capture Frazier with longtime member and leader, Larry Bormel, CPA, of Bormel Grice & Huyett, and Walt Townshend, BWCC CEO. You never know who you’ll meet at the Chamber!
