Breaking news on BBC. Muhammad Ali: Boxing legend dies at age of 74 - BBC News
RIP, to the legend!
He shook up the world. He shook up the world. Can you name a bigger 20th century sports figure? I can't. Sigh.
RIP
2016 can go to hell.
The No.1 boxer and sporting personality at a time when boxing was a truly big sport. Remember watching his fights with my Dad, part of my childhood memories. RIP
Mohammad Ali, was an absolute fave to watch during interviews during the 70's. Although I never saw him fight, as my dad had zero interest in boxing.
During my childhood, the man that, floated like a butterfly and stung like a bee, visited Australia, quite a few times, thanks to, Don Lane ( aka the lanky yank) and Burt Newton. Always loved interviews with, Ali on Parkinson etc as you never new where the interview was going to go.
For me, it was around the time when colour television arrived, making it easy to remember such a larger than life personality.
RIP big fella

As a sports photographer, I have to mention that he may have been the most photogenic athlete of all time. The camera loved him. He was on film what gods are in myth.
