Whenever, January 17th comes along, I celebrate the greatest of all time, Muhammed Ali.
Muhammad Ali, born on January 17, 1942, was an American professional boxer and social activist. Widely regarded as the greatest boxer of all time, Ali was known for his quick footwork, powerful punches, and charismatic personality.
Ali’s boxing career was marked by numerous achievements, including winning the world heavyweight championship three times and securing a gold medal in the light heavyweight division at the 1960 Summer Olympics. He was also known for his activism and outspoken views on race, religion, and politics, which made him a prominent figure during the civil rights movement.
Beyond his boxing prowess, Ali was celebrated for his humanitarian efforts and his commitment to compassion and social justice. His legacy continues to inspire millions around the world
No one would have said it better than Mike Tyson, when he said, “Ali’s a giant. There’s no way other fighters can match him. He’d die for this shit. I’m not going to die for that. Ali’s a savage, he’s an animal. He’s a different breed of person. He’s not like us.” Tribute to Muhammed Ali
Happy Birthday, Champ!
