As this video will attest, for Joe Lewis it was about the people first and foremost. The great man will be missed. He made a huge impact in the martial arts.

Sorry to hear about this, John! Joe seemed to be indestructible to me! I remember seeing his classic fight with Bill Wallace in Chicago. I knew Bill from my Indiana Tracy days since he was from Muncie. Joe lost that fight, but if they had to fight out back in the alley behind the arena, I think even Bill would have felt that Joe would have won that battle.

The last time I felt like this was when I heard that Jay T Will had died so young. I trained with him in Columbus when I was at Ohio State.

Rest in peace, brothers.
