I recall the devastation of Smokin' Joe as well as the loss in Manila. He was a force in his day and beyond. I never got the grill though! Rest In Peace Champ!

I’m still trying to figure out the double period at the end of the thread title.

RIP Big George. Will always remember his walk around the ring at the ‘68 Olympics with the American flag after winning a gold medal—while other Afro Am. olympians demonstated for Black Power during our National Anthem.

One of the solid good guys.

I sat behind him and his son (I want to say his name was also George ;) on a plane one time. Lots of people stopped by to say hi and he was very nice to everyone who did. They both had that late 50’s/early 60’s fashion vibe going with matching hats. Very cool dudes.
RIP, George

All five of his sons are named George. It had a good ring to it.
