    This was really sad to see, I wonder if he even has a clue what is going on. Never quite realised how bad his condition is nowdays. Doesn't look like we will have the GOAT around much longer.

    How long has the GOAT been unable to speak?

    Good to see him, by the way.

    there is no need to drag a man in that condition half way around the world to do an appearence. Respect to the GOAT regardless.

    Last time I saw Ali talk was a decade ago,when he was interviewed for a television special with Sir David Frost.


    I recall prince Naz remarking how he didn't like seeing Ali wheeled out like this.I agree with him to an extent.Not very dignified for an old man,is it?

    Its about what he wants... Just because his body is in bad shape, it doesnt mean he wants to sit at home and not go to events. He has a disease so what? Thats life, it doesnt mean he needs to be locked away because someone may see him with his disease...

    Ali only has 'motor' related problems. His cognitive ability is unimpaired. Although he's not far off 'locked in syndrome'....:|

    People forget that this is Muhammad Ali - probably the biggest character in the history of sports. Just because he suffers from this disease does not mean he is not the same person. ****, he loved every second of attention when he was younger - why wouldn't he now?
