Joe Frazier stopped Canadian George Chuvalo at Madison Square Garden in the fourth round to move as the leading heavyweight contender with a 10-0 record. Chuvalo, previously undefeated on the floor, suffered cuts and a fading vision as Frazier pressed the attack. Officials anticipate a possible bout with Karl Mildenberger later in the year as the German enters a WBA tournament.
