This man hangs on our gym wall, while i train, even though i was not born yet to see him fight i idolized him. Its because of Muhammad ali i have never been scared to get in the ring. I study and try to duplicate his moves, and because of this ive never been knocked down never been knocked out, never even had a broken nose. My opponents are most of the time 240 or over, but my range makes up for it.right now iam about 218 at 6'6",6;7" if u add the shoes.This is also why Iam not a fan of floyd mayweather....paper champ who fixes fights and chooses his opponents. Greatest of all time.

Ali was the best. Brash personality who backed up his words. But Ali is also tragic because his boxing led to his affliction of Parkinson's Disease.

I am not a big fan of Muhammad Ali. I have seen some of his fights on television and i dont like how he fights.

@davidalicea100 He danced around his opponent hoping to get them dizzy and have double vision or get tired running after him.

Cassisus Clay as I remember him at first my friend. I was born then and used to watch his moves in his boxing matches when I was a young girl with my Dad. He certainly is a good role model for you. Wow you are a tall man my friend.

Ali was quite a boxer. And quite a personality as well.

I read his autobiography The Greatest many years ago. What I remember: He came back with the gold medal which he had won in the Olympic Games in Rome but wasn't allowed to enter a restaurant because he was black. He threw it into a river.

I never watched any boxing match, not a fan of it. I think I'm not normal because a lot of my fellow citizens here in my country love boxing.
