The greatest world heavyweight boxing champion of all time, the like of which we will not see again for a very long time. Back before pay-per-view and other fight sports (e.g. UFC), boxing used to draw huge viewing audiences, and none bigger than the 'Thrilla in Manilla' 1975 epic fight between Ali and Joe Frazier, and the "Rumble in the Jungle" 1974 George Foreman fight the year earlier:

RIP champ!

Ali was asked: “What would you like people to think about you when you are gone?”

“I would like for them to say.

He took a few cups of love.

He took one tablespoon of patience,

One tea spoon of generosity,

One pin of kindness;

He took one quater of laughter,

one pinch of concern,

And then he mixed willingness.

with happinnes.

He added lot of faith,

and he stirred it up well.

Then he spread it over a span of

a life time, and he served it to

each and every deresving

person he met”.
