RIP Big George, the last of the four. I imagine there is a heckuva tournament under way somewhere.
His rookie:  I sold this a while ago but it is too interesting not to post:

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.

Really still thinking about the loss to the sport - Great man and person!
Talked about a lot at my show this past weekend (had some Ali mags with him and Ken Norton) - they sold fast! George you will be missed! RIP Jimmy
