  • Former heavyweight champion Joe Frazier was arrested Friday

    Frazier was taken into custody and was to be charged with simple assault and reckless endangerment, police spokeswoman Maria Ibrahim said. He was in jail awaiting arraignment.

    The victim was described by police as the mother of Frazier's son. Authorities gave no further description of the woman.

    The 58-year-old Frazier was a champion in the late 1960s and early 1970s. He fought Muhammad Ali in three classic heavyweight bouts, winning once and losing twice.

    A woman answering the phone at Frazier's gym declined comment. Calls to his daughter, attorney Jacqui Frazier-Lyde, were not immediately returned.
