Muhammad Ali turns 65 today

[ernstn]

Ali's turning 65 today. He was one of the icons of my young days and certainly one of the all-time greatest personalities in sport. I wish him a wonderful birthday.

The BBC has some nice photos of his career here:

Happy birthday, love the guy, had a glimpse of him on the Grand Parade in Cape Town during the Chris Hani Rally.

Watch his interview with Parkinson in the 70s on YouTube. He was a bit of a **** back then, but pretty damn hilarious!

Had some strange beliefs in those days too.

Anyway, all the best to him, I wish him long life.

Yeah, but I think Ali's too slow even for Tyson nowadays. I think Tyson would win - fourth round TKO.

But seriously, Ali makes me sad.
