Muhammad Ali
By: Cece Hymes
Muhammad Ali was a professional boxer. They called him “The Greatest” heavyweight boxer of all time.
He was definitely one of our favorite sports icons. Did you know that Muhammad Ali fought Joe Bugner for the first time. He was gifted a bedazzled, Elvis styled robe from Elvis Presley himself. Muhammad Ali was never one to back down from a fight? His legacy will be remembered forever. Here is some of quotes By him:
“Don’t quit-suffer now, and live the rest of your life as a champion.”
“Every man wants to believe in himself. And every man wants to become fearless. We become heroes when we stand up for what we believe in.”
“Nobody has to tell me that this is a serious business. I’m not fighting one man, showing a lot of em, here is one man they couldn’t defeat, couldn’t conquer. My mission is to bring freedom to 30 million black people.”
I enjoyed the movie Ali, it was good, and Will Smith played his role really well. It showed part of his life journey. If you haven’t checked it out, you should watch it.
