  Today my heart goes out to a pioneer, a true legend, and a hero by all means! Not a day went by entering the gym that I didn't think of you. Your charisma, your charm and above all, your class are all of the elements that will be greatly missed by myself and the world. You are someone that inspired me greatly throughout my boxing journey and words cannot express how great you were as a person! Thank you for everything you've done for Black America, in the the world of sports & entertainmen and for the legacy you leave behind! My sincerest condolences to the Ali family!

  A great boxer but this man was a soul fighter who preached of love. He made it point to SPEAK the truth at all times, even when they wanted him quiet. Thanks for showing us how a real legend looks like. R.i.P Champ
