“Smokin’ Joe” Frazier was an Olympic and World Champion heavyweight boxer in the ’60s and ’70s.  He defeated Muhammad Ali in the “Fight of the Century” in 1971, but lost to Ali in 1975 in the infamous “Thrilla in Manilla” fight, widely considered the greatest boxing match in the history of the sport.

R.I.P. Smokin’ Joe. One of the most memorable early Simpsons guest stars (and a pretty handy boxer too).
Joe Frazier: Homer, I know how you feel. You lost the couch. I lost the heavyweight championship.
Homer: Heavyweight championship? There’s like three of those.
