A Closer
Look at
Frazier
NEW Y O R K -
In the
days before the Frazier-Alt
fight for
the
heavyweight
championship, F razier s only
constar’ companions were his
manager, his chauffeur, his se­
curity man . . . and writer
Dave Wolf.
Wolf, a close friend of F ra ­
zier since 1987, authored an,
article in the current Sport
magazine titled "A Very Close
Look at Joe F ra zie r."
Wolf first met Frazier four
years ago. whea he was
working as a sporu reporter
for Life.

"They wanted to do a storv
oa an obacare heavyweight."
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.
