Just two weeks ago, I was listening to my local Sports Radio station where Bert Sugar was a guest discussing his memories of the first Ali-Frazier fight. Sugar was there covering the event, and to those who followed the sport, he was considered as the premier writer of the sport.
Sugar died today following Cardiac Arrest at the age of 75, and I can't help but think that another part of boxing died with him. It is no secret, that boxing is a sport on life support, and we likely won't be bothered to create Notinhalloffame section for it. With another all time great gone, we are not just mournning the loss of great boxing writer....we are mourning the loss of boxing itself.
