Mohammed Ali, aka Cassius Clay, was one of the most charismatic boxing legends of all time and it was sad to see him become a shadow of that great, effervescent character who boosted the sport of professional boxing for the sporting media to savour and follow with a passion when he was in his prime. That awful neurological affliction, called Parkinson's Disease, finally took him but not without a long battle from the great man!! RIP
