    RIP to one of the greatest fighters in sports history. He will be sorely missed.
    (Many years ago, I remember playing Pictionary with some friends and drew a card with his name. All I could think of for quick sketches were a butterfly and a bee as representations of his famous catchphrase. They were easy clues.)

    RIP Muhammad Ali. He totally was the greatest and had so many great quotes. I always loved that photo shoot he did with the Beatles and pretended to knock all four of them out at once.

    RIP Muhammad - you were the greatest in every way - personality, charisma, flamboyance and talent.

    Wonderful man & an inspiration to millions.

    I remember watching the documentary When We Were Kings & being astounded to see such grace & precision in such a brutal sport.

    I will never forget watching the Atlanta Olympics opening ceremony in 1996. They always keep the athlete chosen to light the torch a closely guarded secret but when the time came & Ali appeared the stadium erupted.I remember just saying 'God, it's Ali'. He was that special.

    The song "The Greatest Love of All," as recorded by George Benson, and then as later recorded by Whitney Houston; was originally written to be the theme song for a movie about Muhammad Ali.
