Ali was 10 years older than I am, so I was a teenager during his heyday. He became a polarizing figure to be sure. But after he returned to boxing in the 1970's, his accomplishments in and out of the ring were to be admired.
I still remember the radio broadcast of the fictional fight between Ali and Rocky Marciano, a computer simulation. What a terrific boxer he was, and certainly one of the greatest athletes of the 20th century.
