Pretty safe to say there'll never be another -- in so many ways. The most horrible thrashing of an undisputed heavyweight champ ever (Frazier I), on the losing end of arguably the biggest fight of all time, 10 years out of the ring --> heavyweight champ at 45, the face of a product that kept millions of college students and young adults fed (and still does, I assume).
I met him once, shook his hand -- my hand disappeared into his gigantic mit.
