Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. RIP Ali

Woke to the said news that Muhammad Ali has sadly passed.

Was and always will be a sporting legend. RIP Ali

[SusieG]

Yes, ditto that GL. ..... Legend is a word oft overused, but in the case of (Cassius Clay aka Muhammad Ali) he's the exception to the rule ... RIP

[Cadalot]

So sad seeing him in later life with Parkingsons, but a fighter to the end

Posted same song in Chat before seeing this thread, so here it is again with a video of the man himself ...

For musical completeness we best have 'the rumble in the jungle' tribute record ..........

[Potstubsdustbins]

RIP Ali one hell of a man.

For musical completeness, got to have Faithless. A great tribute to the great man.

I see your face in front of me, still grainy
From that old black'n'white TV
My whole family silent,
Watchin' you shape destiny witcha two hands
Faster than the eye could see...

Mesmerising

Y'Know what? Skinny lickle me, started to strut.
Ten years old, suddenly bold,
'Cos I resolved to live like my hero in the ring...
Be smart, never give an inch, no retreating
An I racked up, respect from teachers, rednecks
And creatures who attack in a pack like insects.
Never, seen the like, not before or since,
A young prince an I remain convinced of his invincibility,
Athletic agility, virility, still a free spirit.
Forever through eternity, stingin' like a bee...
Muhammad Ali.
