Posted on

Arguably the greatest boxer of all time. Muhammad Ali passed on late last night in hospital in Phoenix, Arizona following his lengthy spell with Parkinson’s which he was diagnosed with in 1984, three years after retiring from professional boxing.

Ali shall be revered as a legend for not only his amazing display in the ring but also for his refusal to enter the Vietnam War draft and speaking out against racism in the United States.

Below are some of Ali’s greatest quotes and some really amazing pictures as well.
