    Never a dull moment whenever I watch a Muhammad Ali interview whether it be on TV or RUclips. Was truly a great man inside and outside of the ring during his time on planet Earth 🙂🙃🙂🙃!!!!

    Imagine a man possessing so many strong qualities all at once,
    A man who was an iconic historic and record-breaking sports figure, strong moral principles, physically gorgeous and stunningly handsome, warmhearted towards the common man and the down-trotten, humanitarian at a global scale, ability to be serious with a tremendous depth, using words with a lot of weight accordingly and can maneuver difficult conversations well, when in company with others he was known for always being light in spirit // joyous and humorous. He was superbly intelligent verbally, funny and witty on the spot. He was offered to teach poetry at Harvard even though he left high-school being considered illiterate. He was abundantly creative poetically, and brought verbal artistry to a field where-in it had never been imagined to be used. He ignited passion and new life to the sport of boxing and he invented new techniques and styles to boxing too.
    He was a humble man despite being one of the wealthiest and most famous on planet. He was a spiritual leader and voice of faith. He always saw eye to eye with anyone he met no matter their status. He was generous with his time and money. He was a sensitive man, it’s obvious to see how deeply he cared for the well being of anyone suffering. He pro-actively used his hard earned success to give back to those who needed it the most. He bravely spoke up for his beliefs at a time and place were you could get killed for doing so, especially risky for a man in the spotlight.
    HIS CONFIDNECE, TRUST AND BELIEF IN HIMSELF !!!!! What a breath of fresh air ~~
    … Just to hear someone so comfortable speaking that positively and encouragingly about himself? Who else could pull that off without coming across as annoying? When he does it, we only look at him fondly, because he does it in such a charming manner- a skill / ability hard to teach or study.
    So many have low self worth today, seeing no light whatsoever within themselves… if only we had 10 more of him. I’m sure anybody can agree, we all feel wonderfully uplifted when we observe how he carries himself with such pride, respect and warmth.
    ALI ❤ A man of action, a man of his word. A man with a strong, warm heart. A man fiercely bold and brave - a man full of love and sincerity.
    What a fascinating man to observe. Brilliant we can look back at media like this, immortalizing him in a way that would not have been possible had he existed 200 years ago.
    Ali is the best man for admiration in my eyes, what a life he lead.

    I have complete respect for Muhammad Ali. He was a man of integrity, honesty, realness, dignity, strength, power, respect, and so much more. He was NOT afraid to speak the truth about the racial injustices of this country at the hands of white people. The powers that be didn't know what to do with him. He was extremely intelligent and fixed on principles.

    Amazing performance under such pressure. A young man stating and reinstating the factual injustices and racism in America on a national public platform in front of interviewers who not once acknowledged the fact of racism and racial murders in America. instead, under their paid role, they sustained their questioning, which clearly intended to other him. Yet he held such a strong and consistent stance. This clip illustrates institutional racism and a legend confronting it in practice. Ali and his boxing personified his true strength.

    This footage is rare, but it illustrates how Ali was much more than a champion boxer, but a highly intelligent, courageous man, totally unafraid to express his views that at the time were perceived as "radical" by many Whites. The sad thing is a the very end where he expresses his disdain for Malcolm X, an attitude that he himself would later regret.

      Ali meant he regretted that time when malcolm X came to him I think it was on the street and he wanted to explain why he left to form another islamic movement and was about to say to ali what Elijah does but ali said to him goodbye brother and left because he thought that was a selfish act on Malcolm “wanting to be the leader” and cut the man who told him everything but later turned out that elijah didn’t explain islam better for the muslims that didn’t speak arabic because he didn’t translate fairly he just translated parts that benefited him also he lied when he said that islam believes in segregation it turned out that there’s آيه on the holy Quran that says " O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted” so basically Elijah mixed the the racial and the social issues that happens in america with the holy Quran and he didn’t diffrence them or separate them as they are , a holy book that is unbiased and peaceful and a lecture about the social issues and the racial injustices .

      The parrot is you regurgitating the same nonsense about Elijah Muhammad. Malcolm X was proven wrong on that critics like you did not understand that his goal was building a nation not wasting himself in a fruitless fight. It takes several generations to go from individual, to family, to clan to tribe to nation. Since you have an Arabic name I suggest you study the creation of the Ottomans from Osmun. The NOI is about to go into its 5th generation and there has been the creation of a royal family with noble retainers intermarried. Malcolm did not understand this and neither do you. Maybe you and others did not take the word NATION serious but Elijah Muhammad did! He was not starting a civil rights group trying to fit in, he was building a nation according to guidelines given in the story of Abraham. That’s how it’s done in all cases regardless their religion

    • @kybelian
      @kybelian 2 года назад +2

      And why give Malcolm X credit for what he did not create? Yes, he was great but it was Elijah Muhammad that created the NOI. All the more remarkable that these two big men with impressive physique deferred to a little man with a big mind. Malcolm C failed to see Elijah was building a royal family for a nation. Study any nation you chose. Franks, Ottomans, Mongols this is how nations are built. His critics just wanted to fit n with being US citizens
