Genuinely gutted this morning
We've lost some legends this year but none come close to the loss of Ali IMO.

Many years ago I worked in Euston Tower, London, which had Capitol Radio on the ground floor. One lunchtime I came out to see a crowd gathered around
Muhammad Ali, who'd just been interviewed there.
I hadn't realised what a huge man he was - he stood a clear head above everyone else in the crowd. In proportion though - not gangly, but tall,
broad and muscular. I wouldn't have wanted to stand up to him!
I heard yesterday he was rushed in to hospital.
Will always be a legend
Love the bit in the interview'when he says " that's the wrong place to get tired "
Sad,sad day. My all time sporting hero!
A really true legend and one of sports gentlemen !
Rip... Doubt that we'll ever see a talent like him again, in boxing
I remember listening on a crackly radio to another sporting legend Harry Carpenter commentating on the rumble in the jungle .... Sporting gold ... RIP the greatest
Listening / watching it all today, great tributes. I've cried (well seriously welled up!!) but mostly I've laughed and felt so proud of what he achieved. We should definately celebrate his life not mourn his death
Gutted
I remember sitting with my dad watching his fights as a child and laughing at his antics
A true legend
As above
RIP
