| Well I for one wish him a very happy birthday... I grew up thinking he was the coolest boxer ever and no one since has ever eclipsed him. |

| Muhammad Ali is the most famous sportsman in the world. For my generation I can't think of a sportsman who is known by name, face and actions by just about anyone in the world who had access to TV, newspapers etc. Even more famous than Pele, John McEnroe & Tiger Woods..
Message 2. Tyson wouldn't have got near him in his prime. I don't believe Tyson would have beaten George Foreman either. |

| His self promotion was just great as well, he has Parkinson's Disease, which is a progressive nerve disease, ...
One of his one liners before one fight was 'he was so fast that he got back into his hotel bed after switching off the light before it got dark'!! ..  |

| Yes a great boxer, our Enry nearly had him and as for Sonny, that was a total fix.
For me it will always be Tyson as the greatest |
