BOXING legend Muhammad Ali is so ill he could be dead within days, his devastated brother has warned. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] - who is known as The Greatest - cannot speak and no longer recognises him.

"He's in a bad way. He's very sick,'' Rahman Ali said.
"It could be months, it could be days. I don't know if he'll last the summer. He's in God's hands."
Former heavyweight boxing champion Ali was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1984. Regarded as one of the greatest sportsmen of all time, he has made many public appearances over the years.
He famously lit the flame at the 1996 Olympic Games in one of sport's most memorable moments.

It is so sad that a life long hero is nearing his end.
He looked so very ill at the London Olympics.
I wish him all of the comfort possible in his illness.
He is the greatest (in many different contexts).

Mentioning the Aussie bad mouth in the same breath as Ali is sacreligious.

Here's hoping the man who can hit the switch and be in bed before the light goes off has a few tricks up his sleeve yet. Keep punching champ.

One of His Classic Quotes.!!!
What about when he was on a Flight and an air hostess said

Hostess...Mr Ali you Better fasten your Seatbelt
Ali...Superman dont need no seatbelt
Hostess...Superman dont need no airoplane also,now fasten the dam thing

They reckon it was one of the only times the Great Man was lost for words.!!!

It should be noted, for those who have not read the article, his Brother has not seen Ali for six months...

Ali will not live forever, but that article only gives one side of the story.

[aussie opinion]

the champ wont let death take him with out one hell off a fight,
the last round would be the greatest, and im sure the champ would stare directly into death's eyes ...and dance around one last time
....

good luck champ

Some may but I certainly dont feel privileged to have seen him fight,took a stand for what He believed in when others criticised Him that in itself was raw Courage.!!!

He's been very ill for about 30 years! This isn't news or a shock. Hope he's not in loads of pain

Not saying these are my feelings, just expressing that some of the older generation i have spoke to over the years wouldn't classify him as the definition of a hero.

I'm too young to have seen him fight in his prime and stand up for he's refusal to go to war, I can only go on what has been said over the years. I guess some older people didn't like the fact how he went about race issues and calling other blacks uncle Toms...... Some others may say he was a misogynist towards women, i do note touching up his wife is also swept under the carpet.

Icon....yes.

Hero.... not so sure

[swingin]

ive no doubt smokin joe will be there when ali appears at the pearly gates. heaven sees ali vs frazier 4....
