Sad to hear, he couldn't even go to the premier of the new documentary about him. Apparently there is no chance he will survive till the end of 2014.

Yes it's very sad indeed, he carried on way to long in boxing but it was he who choose to, great pity
still the Greats in my eyes.

But hıs brother saıd that same stuff last January that he wouldnt make ıt past the summer.

Argue about it all you like but say it was proved without doubt hat the boxing caused the Parkinson's disease, I wonder what Ali would do given the choice in hindsight, do what he did all over again or get the last 20 years of his life back

Muhammad Ali has been in poor health for 5-Years.

Hopefully, this is not some 'press release' just to get more interest in the Movie Documentary.

It's the death watch. We await the bad news!!!
:eek:

He's had Parkinson's for 30 years he's done well to battle for so long. It's sad to hear the man who had such a big voice , limited to barely any speech.

Ali was just unlucky to have caught Parkinson's. It had very little to do with boxing. Pugilistic dementia is what some folks associate with boxing.

Ali was the athlete of the last century, the most famous man on the planet who brought non fight fans into boxing ..... Hugely charismatic, funny, the epitome of grace under pressure when in the ring and in Angelo Dundee's words "the toughest sunuvabitch I ever trained"

I hope not, but the referees count has been on about 7 for a while now.

Richard Dunn.

I remember reading that in a study done around 2000 or so, Ali was still the most recognizable face on earth! Not hard to believe really, if you go back a generation or two, everyone knew who he was. If I had to guess, only Pele could have possibly been more popular worldwide in the 20th century.

I don't find his nearing death any more sad than the shape he's been in for the last 15+ years is. For someone who was such a powerful and charismatic figure to lose their faculties so steadily, I doubt he wouldn't have rather gone much sooner, given the choice.
