IndiraLightfoot Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Leferd: That's the best match of the few I've seen. I'm not much of boxing fan, but Mohammad Ali made it all look like art. MA was a fighter in so many other senses than boxing, though. He was brave and brash, and stood up for what he believed in - something which inspired millions of people all over the world. P.S. This may come across as corny, but I loved his way of rhyming. It was like rap way before I knew what rap was. Cool stuff!

Leferd Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 It's pretty remarkable how Ali is now seemingly seen in a near-universally positive light but in his heydey he was the most divisive athletic figure of his time due to his war protests, civil rights stance, and Islamism. Then there's his mouth. He definitely helped change society. 1 "Things are funny...are comedic, because they mix the real with the absurd." - Buzz Aldrin."P-O-T-A-T-O-E" - Dan Quayle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
