Stats/Joe Frazier's reach

[Brutu]

In his autobiography SMOKIN JOE (with Phil Berger)
page 36.
Joe Frazier states his reach was/is,"Seventy-One inches".
Boxrec has it as 73 inches.

Joe Frazier's reach is indeed 71".

[Brutu]

I have seen Joe Frazier's reach listed at 73 inches elsewhere too.
Perhaps the reason could be that according to Joe Frazier's autobiography,
he had hurt his arm while running and falling when he was a kid a Beaufort SC.
and after the accident he could never fully extend his left arm completely.
He said his arm was always in a cocked position since.

Frazier was listed as 73" in the Ali fight and this is the most widely available Tale of the Tape of his fights. If I can find a Tale of Tape with him at 71" then I will make the change or if you have one, then pm it to me.
