Muhammad Ali: Boxing’s ‘Greatest’ Made You Love Him - George Foreman
“Muhammad Ali made you love him,” said Foreman, who was beaten by Ali in the Rumble in the Jungle in 1974.
“The man was the greatest. Forget about boxing, he was one of the greatest men to appear on television, in the media.”
Ali was admitted to hospital on Thursday suffering from a respiratory illness, a condition that was complicated by Parkinson’s disease.
The three-time world champion died at a hospital in the US city of Phoenix, Arizona. His funeral will take place in his hometown of Louisville, Kentucky.
