One of the greatest sports legends of all time. Ties to wrestling include being influenced by Freddie Blassie and/or Gorgeous George for his promo style, famous mixed match with Inoki in 1976, guest ref at Mania I, and involved in Mid South angle with Jake Roberts and the Snowman in 85. Plus Gorilla Monsoon gave him an airplane spin once

 

RIP champ

"I’ve wrestled with alligators, I’ve tussled with a whale. I done handcuffed lightning and throw thunder in jail. You know I’m bad. Just last week, I murdered a rock, Injured a stone, Hospitalized a brick. I’m so mean, I make medicine sick."

Due to when I grew up and not being remotely into boxing I never developed any special appreciation for or connection to Ali. Just something I completely missed out on. That being said, this weekend has produced so much incredible reading that I absolutely couldn't turn away from. Also have quite a few fights, docs and clips queued up on the YouTube machine for when the time is right. Looking forward to checking out some classics.

His fight vs Cleveland Williams in '66 is one of the all time dominant performances in boxing history.

Ali is one of the greatest Americans period if not the greatest. He stands for freedom.
