Why they finally gave him a licences to fight. Knowing he already had fbrain damage. People that know a lot about Ali say that in real life he was very humble. He joked around a lot. Great since of humor. Elvis Pressly said he was as nice of a man you could ever meet. It's very good to hear a veteran not hate the man. Refreshing. TC

Sorry but I have to disagree with you brother. Watching this video about fifty times already, and every time I got angrier and angrier. And not about the performance of Billy, but about how the Jews are treating all their neighbors in 2022. Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Iran which is Bout 700 miles away from Israel. And my take about Israel is the following: before they landed there, every religions could live in peace with each other! It was not a mistake to call it the Riviera of the Arab world! And about Humility, dude, they are worst human beings among religious believers. Just like their big brother the USA all think that they are some kind of special. Yes it’s true that to. Special interest is their speciality. So, if I want to have visit, and experience friendly and human warmth, I defenetely not gonna visit Israel! I will go their next door neighbors, and any can show more Humility than the friendliest Jewish family can!!!

That's why, although Biden repeatedly said 'we will not build a single foot on the wall', Biden is now spending billions building the wall because without a wall, any nation without one sustains a gigantic spike in physical and criminal violence (as we in the US have), a huge spike in economic destruction (one of many reasons the inflation disaster is going on right now), and several other destructive issues.

I found Muhammad on youtube a few years ago and the impact he had on me was something I'll never forget. I was terribly shy and lacked confidence to a point where everyone including my friends and parents were always commenting on it. I watched his videos probably for a couple of hours and I realized that he didn't believe he was the greatest because of his success in boxing, he had success in boxing because he believed he was to be the world champion. It didn't happen over night but ever since in every task I do I change my mindset to believe that I will be the world champion of this task. It's cheesy but it really works. I use it at my crappy retail job, school, sports, chores, everything. I even wear necklace to remind me whenever I feel like coasting. RIP Muhammad Ali, I'll never forget you and neither will the world.

AMEN.....

This brought tears to my eyes. I’ve watched it before, and it never fails to bring tears to my eyes. 🌹🥊❤️

The greatest athlete in the world! He continues to touch our hearts. Handsome, poetic, let us know how he would NOT fight against people that never ever lifted a finger against him. He taught us a lesson. Turn the other cheek, but always state your opinion with love & kindness Muhammad Ali, you will always be in our hearts.

I’m still watching this amazing tribute to the Champ in February 2024 by his little brother with so much heart felt gratitude and love ❤️ this was the greatest tribute of all times 🙏

What a Tribute, some Eulogy, Billy Crystal is amazing, I don't think he wrote down a word, just from the heart. I hope some people in leadership of this Great United States of America take note. Thank you for posting this wonderful tribute to someone I & a lot òf kids my age growing up admired.

As a Hispanic growing up in Ali era he was my hero. He represented the underrepresented and boy did I love him. I was glued to his every fight and everything he stood for. Brilliant is an understatement. He was put her by God as an example of what we should all strive for. RIP Champ love you!

wonderful speech Billy Crystal, building bridges not walls ..respect from your Muslim brother

Awsome what a magnificent speach,thank GOD he was in my generation to see,they only come in a thousand year's so let's enjoy the very special people that GOD has made and learn from them.

Let enjoy this generation of ours

I was fortunate enough to meet Mr. Ali. Humble and kind. Was honored to be in his company.

Ali is an inspiration to all of us everywhere!! His legacy will live on to eternity!

At the very end, I couldnt control, and tears started to drop, out of love, respect and admiration to the greatest boxer who ever lived! Fantastically done Mr. Billy Crystal. A speech which I'd cherish every time I listen.

It’s his humility I believe that sets him apart

Greetings from Amman, Jordan . If Mr. Billy Crystal happens by chance to read this it would be magical . Not holding my breath . Listening to your speech has been a true breath of fresh air . It’s been a long time since I’ve heard some indirect positivity in regards to our “Semitic family feud “ . Thank you for honoring Ali and being a voice for peace . Humanity still has a chance . RIP Muhammad Ali, the King of Boxing lives forever .

After listening to Billy Crystal for more than thousand times it brings tears to my eyes

"Life is best when you build bridges between people, not walls". I hope we all remember that.

one thing about Ali was when he successfully brought back 15 us hostages from saddam hussein hands before iraq war

I'm nobody just a fan of boxing all my life and Ive been lucky enough to have lived through the Ali era and even see him in a boxing exhibition. I loved the man, the standards he set set in boxing and life can never be equaled. He was THE GREATEST.

@@AP-dn5si he said something very nice. Yours is the first negative comment I've seen here.

I remember the first time I met Ali. I was 5 or 6. And I was waiting at the bus stop with my grandmother on Bardstown rd. And here comes this man jogging down the street and stopped to talk to my grandma. Apparently he knew my grandfather or something like that. I was in awe of this happy joyful man. He asked my name. I told him Dawn. He told me my name meant light of day. Then he told me to always be the light. I will always remember him as kind and loving to ALL people. He didn't care if you were black, white, Catholic, Muslim or Jewish. He cared because you were human and that was how he was period.

Hi how are you doing?

How beautiful. A drop of proof that Peace can exist on earth. Let us look to our hearts. "Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth." --Muhammad Ali--

I know I've watched this before, but had forgotten how incredible it was. Billy gave the perfect send off to a legend.

Muhammad Ali is one of the greatest human that ever graced this planet. I MEAN THAT WITH EVERY FIBER IN MY BODY

You had to live in his time... Perfect way to describe the indescribable Man Ali made the Earth go Around
