Mohammed Ali

Mohammed Ali Dancing in the ring Flying like a butterfly Eying the title-world champ He took on anyone The belt was his to hold... Until defeat...he shakes a hand He fought Joe Frazier three times He was the greatest boxer

Hi Charles, a wonderful Tanka on a great man. In boxing he was and still is my favourite boxer. He will never be forgotten, that is for sure. Love the content of the write. As I read I can see him in his prime, in the mind's eye. Have a wonderful Thursday. Your friend always....Mike.

One of the best Charlie, watched many of his fights growing up, loved his humour out of the ring too.
