  Sad loss but he can now be at peace. Sad to see him the way he's been living these last year's.  Love seeing his interviews especially the Michael Parkinson ones.

  Now that was a boxer and a personality to boot

  RIP

  Saddened to awaken to the news of a true legend's passing.

  Without question 'The Greatest'.

  One of the truly great sportsman of our time, and a huge personality as well !! I well remember watching his fights.

  He was only 74 yrs old. He had Parkinson's disease and his quality of life was reduced for a long time..still, I thought he was much older. 

  RIP

  “I’ve always wanted to be more than just a boxer. More than just the three-time heavyweight champion. I wanted to use my fame, and this face that everyone knows so well, to help uplift and inspire people around the world.”.......Muhammad Ali

  And he did.   RIP

  Every fighter in the world should be at this wake, this is the man who started the multi million $ paydays and pay per views, this man is why they are rich...

  Boxing was virtually dead when he came along, his personality was so strong he even made Howard Cosell famous...

  What made him the "Greatest" of all time(despite the fact he always told us he was), was that what he did for boxing was nothing compared to what he did out of the ring!

  I watched his 1st fight, and every fight he had in his career....

  When he beat Sonny Liston, who was from my home town(St. Louis), one of my best friends Dad, barred me from his house because I said I liked "Cassius Clay"...
