Political activist, proud Black man/fighter for civil rights; and Proud Muslim - fighter for many causes beyond boxing. He refused to fight in Vietnam. More on him later....... Sadly, the boxing likely caused many of his later illnesses. He died from them hours ago after a brief admission to the hospital with breathing problems. I don't pay any attention to boxing, but I did to Ali.
