Football is a boring game, just because it’s popular doesn’t mean it’s any good. Just means ordinary joe soaps don’t know any better, makes them feel all primitive and tribal. The better it’s played the more boring it gets. At least it’s funny to watch it played badly. Boxing is only for connoisseurs... 😆🥊💥

Ali knew his sport and the show business of the fight. He was marvelously nuanced, brilliantly intelligent and humane, way ahead of his time, dignified and courageously stepped into his power, and commanded a truly funny sense of humor. I think he deep down had a lot of humility as a spiritual man, but that said, he also had ultimate confidence in his capabilities and his charisma - electromagnetic. 🐐⚡️

This amazing man was greater than life as Big George Foreman described him after his death during an interview. I am currently reading his biography " The spirit of a butterfly, reflections on a life's journey" and God what a thrilling experience to see Muhammad's life through his own eyes and philosophy. When he talked about regretting to turn his back on Malcolm X and his apology for hurting Joe Frasier and his family, it was so touching and emotional, you can feel how sincere he was. In the book, Ali wrote: “Joe made me fight harder than I ever thought I could. He was a formidable opponent whose skills I will always respect. “But I had hurt Joe in more ways than one and I didn’t realize at the time how my words and actions impacted his family. It was never my intention to hurt them. For that, I’m sorry.” He even wrote a poem for Joe and his family, published in his biography. I picked some parts from the poem titled "The Silent Warrior" to share the beauty of it with everybody: There lives a great fighter named Joe Who took his share of blows They ranged from high to low He traveled around the globe And walked the long road home His pain no man could know. There lives a great man named Joe Who was belittled by a loudmouth foe While rival would taunt and tease, Joe silently bore the stings And fought like a gladiator in the ring. Long after the final bout ended After the last bell rang News reached Joe’s old opponent , Of the pain his family had suffered The blows weren’t intended to hit home But his family still remembers the anguish Their hurt had never ended Now Ali could feel Joe’s pain And Ali’s sorrow could not be relieved For every struggle that Joe survived For every dispute he endured, to rise. Joe will go down in history As a model for champions to come Joe Frazier was a silent warrior whom Ali silently admired. One could not rise without the other.

This is the real secret of Ali's success. Here we see him in his natural element, holding court with the press. Young people raised in the era of Twitter might not understand, but these newspaper and magazine writers held enormous power to make or break careers. And Ali always knew how to give them something to write about.

I remember the fights in the 60's. They were closed circuit and I listened to them live on the radio on a Monday or maybe a Wednesday night. Then ABC would get them and telecast them in color on the weekend like Saturday afternoon. The magic of a good radio announcer is something to experience. He would use his words, emotions flowing with the fight and his ability to bring it to life and your mind would produce the images, a sort of mental movie created by your own mind. It's a magical thing. Then to see the actual fight days later was like opening presents at Christmas. I saw George Chuvalo, Karl Mildenberger, Ernie Terrell, Oscar Bonavena and Jimmy Ellis fights this way. It was a great time for the world and America especially when Muhammad Ali was in his prime. I loved him at first sight.

When I was six years old I met Ali in Miami at that 5th street gym. All I remember were a LOT of people being in the gym that day, being pushed toward Ali while he sat on the ring apron,. and being with him in a circle of people around us. He asked me if I could fight, I remember looking at my dad who was smiling (so I knew everything was okay) and then Ali and I started slap-boxing (I have a picture of it as well). I just didn't know why so many people were around and pictures were being taken etc etc. Needless to say I grew up as a fan, and to this day, if I could pick one person during my lifetime to sit and have dinner with, it would be Ali. Definitely a special man. Also, at the time of this interview, he was without doubt the most famous person in the world. I don't know if there has been a more famous person in my life than Ali. Aside from his celebrity, the man had a good heart. That is what I will remember most about him...he had a good heart.

43:45 Ali was the greatest boxer of all time so when they say a young kid is a boxer he probably thought he was part of the potential Olympic youth team or a champion of the future. But when the boy did the first punch it was clear he didn't even know a basic jab, I think they chose him without checking if he could box, or perhaps the boy said he would like to box and the producers got their wires crossed. YET look how humble and kind Ali was, he didn't in anyway try to humiliate the boy instead he did everything he could to make the boy look good and make him feel strong inside. That's the sign of a true champion, Ali was the greatest, but not just as a boxer but as a Human being!!

Muhammad Ali The Greatest Of All Time 💜✨

Met him on the set of a movie he was in. I had a very small part, so I was a nobody. One day while eating a craft services lunch out under the oaks in Natchez, Mississippi, Ali comes up to my little 2 man table and he said, "May I join you?" I of course said, "Yes, my pleasure, please do." At that time, I was a young, white, 19 year old film student. And I was thrilled! Long story short, we ate, had great casual conversation and he ended by showing me several magic tricks he was working on. Ali was an awesome magician! More than any thing else, I was most impressed with how pure of heart he was. There was a child like love he had of everyone and everything. You couldn't help but love him back... and I did... and still do. Muhammad Ali was a wonderful human being. We should all follow his example. My grandma used to day... "The love we were born with is far more powerful than the hate the world teaches us... and love is the only thing that can cure hate." Grandma and Ali had a lot in common.

This is a man that transcends boxing! He showed a lot of smarts and a HUGE heart! Muhammad, You are indeed the greatest!

simply the Greatest very powerful man

Never been a guy like him before or after, a true anomaly and genius.

What a legend! Forever the greatest!

Ali rest well sir you are always missed. 👊👍😙

I love you Muhammad you truly were and are the GREATEST!! You will never be forgotten!!

Muhammad Ali was the Greatest of all Time, that's an undisputed fact. He loved his sport, was engaging with just about anyone he met, a showman, a intelligent man and Ali was a gifted athlete. His best quality, however, he was humble and had a big heart. Ali was, THE CHAMP!!! R.I.P.👍
