Muhammad Ali - he was a magnificent fighter and he was an icon... Every head must bow, every knee must bend, every tongue must confess, thou art the greatest, the greatest of all time, Muhammad, Muhammad Ali.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Muhammad Ali is a combination of personality and athlete who is probably better known around the world than any other. He became a great hero.
Muhammad Ali was the kind of guy you either loved or hated, but you wanted to see him. I happen to really love him. He brought boxing to another level and always made you laugh.
Muhammad Ali is a true hero, and the fact there's something wrong with him is his badge of valour. He's a great man.
In fifty years of covering the sport, of course Muhammad Ali is by far the dominant figure.
Ali was a legend of our sport. For me as a kid, he inspired me to represent myself like a champion in and out of the ring.
Muhammad Ali was a god, an idol and an icon. He was boxing. Any kid that had the opportunity to talk to Ali, to get advice from Muhammad Ali, was privileged. He's always given me time to ask questions, although I was so in awe that I didn't ask questions.
I started boxing because of my brother. And then I came to admire the all-time greats, like Roberto Duran and Muhammad Ali. I'd say I admired Ali more than any fighter in my life.
Muhammad could take a very good punch. He was slick, he could move, he could hit, make you miss, good hand speed and combinations and one of the greatest fighters of all time in my opinion.
Mike Tyson would have been a good sparring partner for me and Muhammad Ali because Tyson was a fast fighter and he could punch and throw good combinations.
I would like to be remembered as a boxer who tried to do his best.
