"If you like to lose your money, be a fool and bet on Sonny;
If you wanna have a good day, put it on Clay."

For those of us of a certain age, an Ali fight on TV in the 1970s was a big event; everyone at school talked about it, and everyone watched it. Things were different then.

He lit up our lives. RIP Ali, and thank you.
 
I'm so fast that last night I turned off the light switch in my hotel and was in bed before the room was dark.
Almost better with words than with his fists!
 
I always wonder what may have happened if Henry had hit him 3 seconds sooner. Still think he would have been world champ, but the bravado couldn't have been the same. But he was "the greatest" boxer. The "Ali shuffle" even became a move by extrovert footballers of the Currie/Hudson ilk
