Facts from Wikipedia about Muhammad Ali.
Muhammad Ali (born Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr., January 17, 1942 in Louisville, Kentucky, U.S.) is a retired American boxer and three-time World Heavyweight Champion. As an amateur, he won a gold medal in the light heavyweight division at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome. As a professional, he was the youngest boxer ever to take the heavyweight title from a reigning champ (a record that stood until 1986), and later became the first to win the lineal heavyweight championship three times.
In 1999, Ali was crowned “Sportsman of the Century” by Sports Illustrated and “Sports Personality of the Century” by the BBC.
Ali changed his name from Cassius Clay to Muhammad Ali after joining the Nation of Islam in 1964, subsequently converting to Sunni Islam in 1975 and later Sufism. In 1967, Ali refused to be inducted into the U.S. military based on his religious beliefs and opposition to the war in Vietnam. He was arrested and found guilty on draft evasion charges, stripped of his boxing title, and his boxing license was suspended. He was not imprisoned but did not fight again for nearly four years while his appeal worked its way up to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Ali was well known for his fighting style, which he described as “float like a butterfly, sting like a bee“. He was involved in several historic boxing matches, including three with rival Joe Frazier and one with George Foreman, whom he beat by knockout to win the world heavyweight title for the second time.

Muhammad Ali is a most famous athlete. I know that he had won gold meddle for America in Olympics. Now his daughter is also a heavyweight boxer. Wow ! you have choose the best theme for your collection. Very nice. Thanks to share it.
This man is one of my greatest heroes, and I especially revere his bravery in standing up and saying no to the draft. In the modern world he would simply have adopted a new country to reside in, but back then things weren’t so simple. Four years is a lot of time wasted in the career of any professional sportsman.
Just One i will say , Mohammed Ali will be the Legend Of the Boxing Forever
