Just in time for the fiftieth anniversary of The Fight of the
Century (Ali-Frazier I), Sparrin' with Smokin' Joe provides a
penetrating, at times brutally candid, look at legendary champion
Joe Frazier. While the more flamboyant, media-accessible Ali
continues to receive the lion's share of the ink on their epic
rivalry, Glenn Lewis rectifies that imbalance by focusing on the
man whose ferocious fighting spirit enabled Ali to be viewed as
truly great. Based on several months Lewis spent in the gym, on the
road, and in verbal tussles with the Frazier as part of his inner
circle in 1980, the book includes compelling, never-before-heard
anecdotes that give new insight into Frazier and make readers
reevaluate their impressions of Ali. Lewis argues that Joe actually
won their second fight and even questions whether the wrong man got
the mantle as "The Greatest."
