Muhammad Ali the Greatest RIP Legend

[Spicoli]

I do believe as of last night they've officially run out of room where the heroes find final peace. You cannot put into words the enormity of the man and his impact, influence and lasting impression on not just a country but the world. I never had the pleasure of seeing him fight live as a kid, the first time I saw him on TV was nowhere near a ring but on an episode of Different Strokes and it stuck with me as Pop and my sister were howling! Wasn't until the mid 80's I truly began to appreciate him in and out of the ring, we'd sit and watch 'Superbouts' on ESPN where they seemed to rebroadcast the second Norton fight, Frazier trilogy and Foreman fight at least once a week . Those were good times. Ali was a man who did what he truly wanted, said what he wanted when he wanted to say it, stood up to government and bucked a societal mindset whos time needed to expire and exceeded every expectation in his chosen profession. Regardless of race and religion Ali was very much the everyman, some of what we'd like to be. We didn't lose one of the greats...we lost the greatest. Listening to the news interviews of at least a dozen fellow boxers today really is a beautiful and telling tribute. A brotherhood rallied. Rest easy and be at final peace champion.

A huge procession and funeral will be held for Muhammad Ali on Friday to "allow anyone that is there from the world to say goodbye", his family says.

The funeral will be in Ali's home city of Louisville, Kentucky. Ex-President Bill Clinton will deliver a eulogy.

Comedian Billy Crystal and sports journalist Bryant Gumbel are also expected to speak.
The boxing legend, 74, died on Friday of "septic shock due to unspecified natural causes".

A private family service will be held on Thursday.

Christ, Bill Clinton? No doubt he'll go to great lengths about the integrity of Ali, how he was a man who stood for what he believed in, as if Bill has the first idea about it or stands for anything. Yuck.

BC cheating record is compared to Ali's fighting record, Hilary looks and acts like Angelo Dundee, there is a deep interconnection between the two

Muhammad Ali has become too mainstream and with non black people I get the feeling that there admiration runs along the lines of "Yeah, Ali had a reason to complain, but today's blacks have no reason"

Even in the UK. Ali's death was the main news headline on the BBC and an extended slot at that. I think they forgot that Muhammad Ali was savage with white people



His mouth was reckless and I love it

They couldn't even wait till his body was cold to start lying when the evidence is out here "He was such a gentle giant! We loved him and this is what I shall tell my children."

No chump, he lit into y'all asses, y'all hated it and you're happy he is finally at rest so you can finally act un-bothered by all the old footage documenting the very Black Pride that y'all FEAR. They kill me with that mess

What I like EVEN MORE is he never took a single word of it back.

I don't recall Ali ever back-pedalling with his words. He said it, he meant it, and he stood by it to the end.

He was before my time, but he transcended generations with his bravery. This is what I looked up to with Ali. I wasn't around when he was THE fighter to beat, but the guts he had to defend our people was the bravest characteristic about him.

He was NOT afraid of these racist ass white boys.

This is why I'm going to refuse to watch the CNN and BBC coverage of him and all these other news outlets and their whitewashing of him. White folks didn't give a f*ck about Ali until he started shaking.

I know Ali used to shake his head in disgust at today's athletes and entertainers. They are a bunch of cowards with no substance even though they have more money and power than Ali and his fellow celebrities had at the time.

He actually went broke for standing up for what he believed in. He was truly the GOAT in more ways than one.

@denilson200 , this is better! Shamelessly using the Death of an undisputed icon to wind people up with your racist shit. 😂😂
For the record, I also admire the fact that he never once apologised for any of his views, why should he if that's what he believes.
Not like Pac or Fury, who end up falling over themselves apologising and justifying themselves.
But I think your "95% non-racial post" stat is taking a bit of a kicking here! 😂😂😂

Our family were Ali mad. My grandparents on my Dad's side were Irish immigrants and they had two pictures on the living room wall, one of the Kennedy brothers and one of Ali. One day in 1977 Ali came to South Shields and my Dad took the day off work, came to our school and got me and my brothers out of our classrooms () and drove us through to South Shields to see Ali.




The news had a big effect on everyone especially my Dad, who is now in his eighties.There's not much you can really add to all the words written about him over the past few days so rest in peace Ali.

Truly. ..great act of humanity.

Losing Bowie and. Prince was truly artistic geniuses that left us.
With Ali we lost the measure of manhood. Even in death Ali will be a hard act to follow. What celebrity death will touch the world like this. Bad year to die as a celebrity post Ali.

In this village, local headlines are boring
