The World Lost Mohamed Ali.

No, not when I posted it.  It had just hit the wire and I thought some folks here might like to know.  Hours later...it was on every news site out there so...I guess I could have just let folks here wait and hear/read about it elsewhere.

But he wasn't OU.

Ah, but he was!  The "Louisville Lip" was the epitome
of OverUnity in the Flesh.  I agree with Pirate and the
others who recognize his uniqueness and his greatness.

He is missed.  His heart was very large.

Yes he was an awesome individual who I followed from his earliest fights and always cheered for him.   I was very lucky to meet him in person one time at some small event held at a shopping mall.  Very few people surprisingly were there.   I walked up and shook hands with him and told him I was a fan of his from early on.   A minute later a black lady showed up holding a baby.  He walked over - scrunched up his face a bit and blurted out 'Ugly baby' - LOL - he didn't censor his thoughts like most of us do (which is really a form of lying) and I think that was one of his neat and unique qualities.   You will be missed Muhammad Ali !
