An Eastern poet, Ali Ben Abu Taleb, writes with sad truth, He who has a thousand friends has not a friend to spare, And he who has one enemy shall meet him everywhere

He's like the Muhammad Ali of football. Muhammad Ali was the trash-talker of boxing. It's funny, though. It really is.

This fight could make a legitimate claim to being the greatest fight of all time, maybe not in terms of social significance, but in terms of great action between two historic fighters,.. Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times.

Throughout a lot of the black community, he was an object of derision and scorn because of the way Ali treated him. It was cruel.

There are certain points in time where you can look back and say 'That's when Ali should have retired,'.. He clearly should've retired after Manila. When you've taken a beating like he had taken in Manila and you know you're not the fighter you once were, that's the time to get out.

There has been sort of a selective amnesia. If you look at the Will Smith movie 'Ali,' it virtually washed away Ali's history in the Nation of Islam. People are being told that Ali stood up for his beliefs, but they're not being told what those beliefs are.

Now, if Ali was still going around saying those things, I don't think he would be as beloved as he is today. By the same token, this country as a whole has become much more understanding of the terrible prejudice and bigotry that existed and has come to recognize the underlying validity of Ali's demand for racial justice and equality.

It's a major loss for all of Africa because Ali proved that as an African, as a musician, we could take our work very, very far.

In the tradition of the great rematches -- Ali vs. Frazier, McEnroe vs. Borg, the Rolling Stones and Father Time -- neither could resist the challenge of proving once and for all they are the best

We are not a world capital. But I believe they have hope that disputing peoples will come here. I would love to see Muhammad Ali come back and put his blessing and his encouragement at those tables of reconciliation.

[Saudi Oil Minister Ali Naimi said the oil-rich kingdom has the capacity to immediately raise its oil production from around 9.5 million bpd to 11 million bpd if needed.] The crude is available,.. If you want it, there it is.

Right now, there's nobody out there to turn people on,.. This is the disease of Muhammad Ali.. With Muhammad, every time he did something, it was excitement. It's excitement now, when the guy comes around, walking around with Parkinson's. It's unfair to try to compare anybody to this kid.

When he's good, I call him 'Al-ley,' like Muhammad Ali

I love this horse, and I really love him in the Travers. He's fit and sound and eager. He's like a fighter right now; he's acting like Ali. He strikes with the front and kicks with the back and does the rope-a-dope and everything. He's really matured.

You gotta let a guy be himself, because that's what makes him. Leonard, Robinson, Ali, Benny Leonard, Barney Ross, all of them had the same attitude. If they don't have that ego kinda temperament they're not going to make it. You gotta be a selfish guy. Most people take selfishness as something bad, but it's really something good. If a guy don't help himself and think about himself first he won't make itnowhere in life doing nothing.

A black car exploded next to me. My brother, Ali, was with me. At the time of the explosion, he was torn into pieces of flesh.

I feel like they have enough confidence from what they have achieved to know full well they're very good. But I don't think they're going out there to prove that they're good or that Ali wasn't the whole team.

We would love to fight Laila Ali. We offered her 00,000 dec 28th of last year when we met with Ya Ya Mclaine. We offered her 1/2 a million guarantee and 75% of the PPV revenue -- she turned the fight down. We still to this day do not know why they would turn down that kind of offer.

Ali wasn't our normal goalkeeper. She stepped in and played a strong game. She has played defensive center-midfield most of the season and did a tremendous job.

If you close your eyes, you could just as well imagine me to be vintage Ali MacGraw, circa 1968.

From 1979 to 1981, when he was light heavyweight champion of the world, he had a 35-man entourage and he was hanging around with celebrities like Frank Sinatra and Farrah Fawcett. He drove a Rolls. His idol was Muhammad Ali. Ali had a 70-man entourage? Matt couldn't afford 70 but he had 35.

Ali absolutely worshiped Ray. Still does. Usually, the greatest fall from grace is by fighters. People tend to avoid ex-fighters. They feel they took one too many. Randy Turpin once asked Ray, 'What's worse, being a has-been or a never-was?' Then Randy committed suicide. But the people never forgot Ray. He felt God had made him a boxer for that reason. So he would not be forgotten. So he could help.

Ali has been so consistent all season long. She has put together some really good scores this semester and to see her come back today and move up in this tournament was really exciting.
