Joe Frazier, 23, improved to 17-0 by stopping George Chuvalo in four rounds in New York. He dismissed the eight-man elimination plan to crown a Clay successor, saying he’d let the others fight it out while he watches and fights on.

Referee Johnny Colon stopped the bout 16 seconds into the fourth round after a brutal flurry.
