Wolf says, "so they seat me to Philadelphia to see F ra zier because It was closest.” It took Wolf three days be fore Frazier would see him. possibly, Dave feels, because Frazier at the time didn’t want to have anythJng to do with a white reporter Dace he did get together with F ra ile r, they became Immediate friends. They spent time In the ghetto together and rapped together and Frazier im pressed Wolf na “ a straight forward feUow, easy to be around.’’ This kind of trust explains his access to Frazier before and a ft p the fight.
