Mohammed Ali - Jan 17, 1942 - Jun 03, 2016

Mohammed Ali, known for his quick wit and mighty punch, was an American professional heavyweight. Considered one of the greatest boxers of all time, he was a 3x's heavyweight champion with 37 knockouts and a 56-5 boxing record.

I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.

Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.

I'm the greatest thing that ever lived! I'm the king of the world! I'm a bad man. I'm the prettiest thing that ever lived.
