Thing for me is SupaHeavy that not just anyone can pull something off like Ali.
It takes a special type of person to be able to transcend the sport itself and make of it as he wished.

Many have tried and a couple have been able to do it in their own ways but to be honest Rhun (and I'm sure you feel this way to) I don't think ANYONE will ever be able to do with the sport what Ali did.

Ali was the most hated, loved person in the world.

He was witty, he was smart, he was a good guy wearing the mask of a bad guy.
