#2 Tribute to the legend

The whole sporting world was taken by shock earlier this week when legendary boxer Muhammad Ali passed away.

From early in his career, Ali was known as an inspiring, controversial but universally loved figure both inside and outside the ring.

He championed a variety of social causes when he wasn’t busy setting fire to the boxing ring. And notable amongst his exploits in boxing was the “Fight of the Century" and the “Thrilla in Manilla” versus his longtime rival Joe Fraizer, and the notorious “Rumble in the Jungle” against George Foreman.

He was also a longtime friend of WWE and had taken on the likes of Gorilla Monsoon and WWE Hall of Famer Antonio Inoki.

The WWE’s very talented video production team, put together one of the best video packages this year as a tribute to Muhammad Ali’s life.

And guess what, @RealMickFoley approves.

R.I.P Muhammad Ali, you legend.
