As I mentioned earlier, The Rumble at the Rock III, that takes place at the River Rock Hotel and Casino tomorrow, will be a part of ESPN's Friday Night Fights and will feature a bout between Houston's Dominick Guinn taking on Philly's Robert Hawkins.
But another attraction will be the presence of Smokin' Joe Frazier.
The legendary pugilist took part in a number of memorable bouts during the golden age of boxing, including the "Thrilla in Manila" against Muhammad Ali.
While he probably can't box as well as he used to, Smokin' Joe showed he could still hit with some humorous jabs at the pre-fight press conference.
"Don't ask me who's going to win," said the former heavyweight champ.
"Nobody's going to hold me responsible for their money."
Frazier runs a gym in Philadelphia and even took an opportunity to take a shot at his clientele and their fashion sense.
"I don't know about this wearing your belt down, pants dropping down to their feet, I can't understand it."
"They must not have a lot to give the ladies."
Rumble at the Rock III is sold out but if you do have tickets, you will get an opportunity to meet Joe Frazier in person as he will be signing autographs after the event is over, approximately 10 p.m.
Doors open at 4:30 p.m. tomorrow.
