FYI Ali planned his funeral. He chose each speaker. So keep your opinions to yourselves
Sure he did
dam, one fine speech. R.I.P Muhammad Ali
"We should honor him by letting our gifts go among the world as he did." Beautiful way to end this tribute.
Indeed.
Boxing will miss Ali.
The world will miss Ali.
Humanity will miss Ali.
God bless his soul. 💥🥊
The truth is the truth no matter who says it. Listen to the words and don't dismiss them because you don't like the speaker. This was a great statement of what made Ali great.
Another one of my generations' Icons has passed. I and my whole family were proud and enamored of not just his athletic prowess but also his courage, his efforts on behalf of equality and peace throughout the world and his dedication to his family. I believe that now unfettered by his physical body that he is dancing and shadow boxing and has bowed to the only one Greater than us all. I shall always love and miss you Mr. Ali. Have a wonderful journey as you embark on this new life. Thank goodness you can "float like a bee" because you most
certainly will continue to be as busy as one. If I am extremely blessed I'll see you when I get there.
That was beautiful. Thank you for the sharing of your heart.
People its not your funeral. Stop concentrating on who the speaker but what they are saying about The champ. Your criticism is going against what ALI stood for.
Ali was racist against whites because they were racist against him. Let's be real. When he got rocked by two white dudes and knocked down by one of them, he got real heated and had a very hateful look on his face...., but when he got cracked by Frazier, he never came close to showing such hatred. By the way, I am not white.
Grace peace#for sure you dont know what your talking about ,Ali sacrifices his life going to rescue the white Americans in Iraq and at that momment Sadam Hussein was the the president.
+omar songz Ali was a liberal who didn't approve of war. Get educated, please.
Well said!!!
+Freddy Mercury ...he was manipulated by the nation of islam. he was kept in check with the memory of malcolm x being shot in front of his wife and kids...ali had an i.q. of 78. the "greatest"
Ali chose the speakers and did a wonderful job in choosing people who he personally respected to speak for him and deliver the words he would have spoken had he been able ...still flying like a butterfly and stinging like a bee and now truly free at last ...
Excellent speech. Rest in peace Champ!
Indeed an excellent tribute.
All the people criticizing the speech....how many of you will have a president talking about your life in your funeral?
I was blessed to visit Ali. I was like 17. Cool, and nicest kind champion. Watching his days as the Titan in the ring. Missed.
What is the definition of Honorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't care what people think about Clinton but I know he wasn't faking in his respect for Ali.
My dad was a boxer and told me that in his opinion that Ali is the greatest he has seen.
cheers
Gary
He most certainly was. His skills were Supreme. He beat every great fighter from 1963 to 1978 in the hardest heavyweight division in history. Names like Patterson twice, Liston twice, joe Frazier twice, Ken Norton twice, Earnie shavers, Ron Lyle, Ernie Terrell, Jimmy Ellis, George foreman, Jerry Quarry twice, Leon spinks, just truly was a miraculous boxer. Truly the greatest of all times, and anyone who says different doesn’t know s thing about boxing. That’s how much better Ali was than other greats. 💥🥊
Sad to even have him there representing who?
right!
+d.L.c. carroll NO friends of Ali, and certainly NO friends of Palestine. A Fox charade
+chronicreader you know what? its because they're stupid and don't have any common sense at all damn bunch of ignoramous jackasses
Agreed and stupid comments at best!
i cant help but cry....its always great to honor someone who shows to the world what love is...it is hope that we all cherish our loved ones and friends and never take each other for granted....may he the greatest rest in peace
Bless you, President William Jefferson Clinton!!! That speech was fantastic!!
If there be any haters on the comments for this speech.......you may feel free to BE GONE!!!
There's no room for hate on THIS thread, for this beautiful, poignant speech!!
HATERS, BEGONE WITH YOU!!!
you use the word CHILLINGin the hope it creates hate, but this is a great speech from one great man on another. None of us are perfect, but the world has a shinning light to give us guidance - Ali
What Muhammad Ali means to me was a man who rise from defeat to conquer the world.
One of the bravest men I can imagine.
And a total humanitarian.
It is sad and more than a little disturbing to see this video turn into a forum for hate. Shameful.
I love you Ali; RIP
can't go wrong when it's from the heart
Seriously, this was a man's FUNERAL. And not just any man, a GREAT man. Can't we just have civil comments and not bring politics and personal opinions into it.
Regardless of one's opinion about Bill speaking at Ali's funeral one has to admit for an ex- boxer from St. Louis to have an ex-president speak at his funeral says a lot.
charlene mitchell I do not know, nor do I wish to judge.
charlene mitchell Bill is a strange man. Truly he is not someone I'd wish to know. I didn't mean you wanted me to judge; it was only a statement because my temptation is to judge Bill.
louisville, ky..not st. louis..
Thx.
Yes, it says he's trying to get some t.v. time. It says he's doing this in the hope of successfully securing the black vote for his wife in the up coming election. It says, once again he's bamboozled this segment of the population. It says that he care about one famous black man, while denying the black masses. It says that Bill really didn't have anything better on his calendar that day.
AAAALI AAAALI AAAALI I learned a lot from this Man......ALI is and was Truely EPIC.
mohammed ali, talked the talk, and walked the talk, a supreme human being. rip
stay out of the draft, its detrimental to your health
+J Bone he wasn't, he told your people he wasn't going and he didn't, he didn't go murder innocent people
+J Bone you profile picture refects of who you are?do what it did n speak then if not ....just shut up...nobody knows you so who cares what you gotta say ? you behind a buck profile picture...
+J Bone let me ask you this...why are you watching this video?be honest...
Hilary said on the campaign that she was not a natural politician like her husband. This bears this out. Whether you like him or not or his wife, he's a great orator and I don't know if he's crooked or not, but he can (can) make it all seem heartfelt. Great tribute from a flawed but great politician
perry mason yes he is crooked though
We are only here for a short time in this life, I'm seeing that now. When I was young, I was arrogant, full of pride, but I had love in my heart! Love is sacrifice!!!
Pathetic that some can’t see the honor in one man giving a tribute to a close personal friend he has known for decades.
Nothing chilling about this. Just a sensational click-bait title. Not very professional, FOX 10 Phoenix.
may he be granted the highest place in jannah ameen kulu nafsin zaiyika thil moath that was the belief of muhammad ali as a muslim. . every soul shall taste death
This was a very profound but at the same time simple and honest speech. What's chilling about that?
I thought they said Ali requested these people to speak at his memorial? RIP GOAT
For Ali to select these ppl clearly shows he wasn't in his right state of mind...no pun intended.
Yes, indeed Ali was a true legend and he will remains in our hearts forever. R.I.P The true legendary and world greatest.
RIP Muhammad Ali, and thank you Bill you articulate very well his true character.
Thank you President Clinton*°•♡
I live in London uk,I had to watch from British tv this event,guess what Fox News was showing,garbage
Mr. Ali.. A great man.. Ali is still the best. A true champion of humanity & spirit in so many ways. I loved him as a child as I watched in wonder his skills as an athlete, his beliefs & his voice on civil rights. I was a very young then, but I will never 4get how he fought the good fight all of his life. He never gave up or gave in. I admired him deeply and I will until the day I am no more. Maybe I'll even get to meet him someday :). I know he's in the best place ever created now but he is missed by this entire planet of so many cultures and religions. We cry in the losing of him, his life here but he's joyful at his new arrival.. Mr Ali, we still hear your voice.. it will never die.
Bill looks and sounds very ill himself.
Could be teeth marks on his dick, very painful
This is a beautiful speech for a beautiful athlete. How 'bout leaving it at that.
What's not great about a man; who used the huge platform he built to speak for those whose voices were lost, to speak against injustice in society, show the “powerful” that he didn’t fear them as he spoke for what he believed. When he refused the Vietnam draft, he put a lot at risk - most people would have found a way to slip out of it or would have gone - but he in essence said “what have they done to me? You’re the ones who have persecuted me and oppose me, why should I kill some poor people in the mud for big powerful America?” His big mouth was just banter in the boxing/entertainment world, you think any of his opponents take it to heart? You must be crazy. Joe Fraizer and George Foreman for example all talk about the greatness of Ali, even though he insulted them to the tee. He negotiated the release of several hostages from Saddam Hussein’s Iraqi govt whilst Bush was president for which he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom (the highest honor a civilian can receive). He mingled with everyone, especially regular people and kids. He wouldn’t rock around with bodyguards, he’d just walk into crowds of people because he wasn’t scared - he truly was the peoples champ. He would spend huge chunks of his time serving the underprivileged who weren’t supported by the powers. How many famous people do this kind of stuff? At the most they might mention a couple things, but are just pandering. Muhammad Ali actually dedicated his life to fighting injustice by not being afraid to put himself in the firing line because he knew with the influence he had, it was his duty. To not call him one of the greatest human beings of the 20/21st century is an injustice to the man. I can’t think of many people at all who used their influence to create positive changes like he did. He WAS great.
SPORTS media GAVE HIM WHAT!!!!?? HE NOT ONLY WON FIGHTS, BUT DID SO AS HE PREDICTED!!!
Tbh I'm shocked thT Ali could be involved with this disgusting man obviously Ali's worst mistake
What's so "chilling" about Clinton's speech?
nothing ...just a tactic to grab hits on the vid. good vid though so all good here.
Anthony Martinez nope! Ali wanted him to speak! Watch the coverage of the will!!!!!!
I know its useless to think such a speech in tribute to an incredibly animated, richly principled man like Muhammad Ali would be appreciated by everyone, but reading the vitriolic comments directed at Bill Clinton himself is just sick. The layers and intensity of hatred people have for their Presidents past and present has gotten so bad in America, they ended up choosing a man (Trump) most world leaders are coming to realise is as uneducated and ill informed as a sizeable portion of the American population that elected him.
In any event, Clintons' speech was a touching tribute to a great man, a true warrior of the heart and a moral compass for all mankind.
Great tribute. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 28th December 2023.
Muhammad Ali is a follower of Muhammad the noble man of Makkah.
عليه الصلاة والسلام.
if he was loved by so many, it is not unusual the prophet being loved by 2 billion people.
we are coming for you andy
ALi stood on his on merits, he beloved by the world has nothg to do with, who now.
beautifully and respectfully spoken, reguardless of motive
Greatest president ever,greatest fighter ever...period.
If FOX TV thinks I need to watch this...I am going to stay away!
hmmm what is so "chilling" about this speech ??
Awesome tribute, Mr. President! RIP, Mr. Ali! We miss you!
Indeed an awesome tribute.
I shut the audio as you implied, saw the speech, sorry but didn't feel any chill!
Bill Clinton is the only president I know of that came to a city's roughest part of town while in office. That city was Louisville, KY , Ali's hometown. That area of town was Park DuValle. (Cotter homes and Southwick)
Mr. Clinton after decades of being your opponent, at least in this particular speech we're in same page. Well done and in this case I feel your pain.
Inaa lilahi wa ina ilayhi rajicuun may Allah grant him fardowsal jana aaamiiin
Very good speech.
The comments from the sick people on here are something Ali would have been repulsed by. You are shameless, you are a disgrace to America and you disrespect the greatest athlete the world has known. With luck he will be waiting for you, IF you make it upstairs, and will teach you all a lesson about humanity.
Remember how Bill Clinton laugh at Obama when he was running for the presidency
He was so fast he could turn out the lights and be in bed before the room got dark.
Maybe the uploader meant the speech gave him chills.
very nice speech!
Oh that was sooo CHILLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Plz listen to what he is saying, because its about Muhammed Ali and not about Bill Clinton
Honorable President Clinton gave such a great speech. While Eulogising Mohammad Ali, also gives light on how many of us can learn from Mohammad Ali 's life and contribute like him to the society. Such a forward looking man.
He ( Mohammad Ali) perfected gifts that we all Have. What a Great torch bearer is Mr Bill Clinton. Showing the Light , like a light house.
We need to honor MOhammad Ali : by realising our gifts .
That will be $250,000.00 please.
You know it
hahahahaha you beat me to it!!! ROTFLMAO!!
the FACT that this isn't true doesn't matter to you, does it? you're a self-righteous a-hole they were good friends, get it?
John R. Ouch!!
Trinavara Exactly
Duely respected, and former american president mr. Clinton, sir, it truly is one of the few best of tributes I have ever heard. and I am not saying this as a fan of yours, which I happen to be.
Mr. Clinton, is speaking out in a very humble and very conservative way.thank you Mr. Clinton, Mr. Ali, would have been proud, RIP Amen.
One of best eulogies I’ve ever seen! The best President the US ever had!
It's interesting that Clinton chose to call Ali a "universal soldier." If you've ever heard the song Universal Soldier, you know Ali was the opposite of that. He was a universal voice for peace, not for war.
Nothing chilling?Just a hot air bag!
I'd really like to hear you speak, about --------anything.
+John Smith No you wouldn't. Lol
+John Smith Especially after seeing how he types. "Nothing chilling?"lol. Is he questioning himself, asking us, or just confused? I'm gonna go with doesn't understand what a question mark means.
There's nothing chilling about this speech. It's just a recent President speaking about the death of a close friend. Plain and simple.
A Universal Soldier For HUMANITY
despite all, Ali is now one of the biggest stars in the cosmic constellations. a great ancestor now.
TY. To Washington. 🇺🇲❤️🤍💙🇺🇲💚💚💚
Talking about Mandela, no sign of a signer this time
Honorable? Are you joking?
I have to say this sincere deep truth, that when he was Cassius Clay he was a regular guy but when he meet Elijah Muhammed and He named him Muhammed Ali and he taught him he raised Ali up not only character, virtue, intelligence but he was able to speak truth with conviction and influence a world of people and all of that credit belongs to Elijah Muhammed and the Nation of Islam! And every leader under Elijah Muhammed tudalige has been a superior human being and to this day those black men women and children are the most well behaved, intelligent respectful influential moderst and God fearimh people i have ever known yet know one from him family have Elijah Muhammed or the Nation of Islam any praise or acknowledgement i think it qas disrespectful and rude not to
Whether he was Cassius Clay or Muhammad Ali this man would still have had such an impact over his people and afar,it was when he was in his 40s he distanced himself from that side of the nation of islam under Elijah Muhammed's successor so there is no way his character was formed by them in anyway as im sure he would still have stood up for what his beliefs were and once he became HW champ would've acted accordingly as the prejudices he witnessed as a child and young man had such an effect on him shaping that strength and defiance within him against ignorant racism.There is a reason why no past or present members of the movement he was involved in werent invited he had such love in him and grew to realise that the seperation Elijah preached was not for him anymore if only the majority of folks could be like this then racism would be moving to be a shameful thing of the past,well lets hope oneday soon. RIP Muhammad ALI.The Greatest of all.
+Stuart M He had no wisdom no intelligence until he meet Elijah Muhammed, just like Malcolm, just like Farrakhan!! He knew nothing and again rather you like or dont like Elijah Muhammed he took ignorant men and women and clean them.up made them Gof fearing intelligent decent clean human biens
Yes i do agree with you that Elijah educated and cleaned up many men and women thats true but i do believe with Ali he wouldve still became a huge figure in the civil rights movement even if he never met Elijah,okay he may not of had an education that wouldve enabled him to qualify automatically for harvard but he was a very smart and articulate man who would learn and educate himself 'so to speak' from whomever he was involved with,so i mean he couldve learned from any number of the great ppl of that time i envisage him always being up there whatever group he was part of you cant keep a smart/intelligence seeking man down
say that! truth !
Oh my goodness. Generally, the deceased and family's desires are carried out at funeral and memorial services.
good speech mr bill Clinton
Yeah. Too bad he left out the parts where he raped Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broaddrick.
hes in jail soon. hillary 2.
Bill looks sick
seeing how much bill has aged amazes me how time flies
Brilliant and heartfelt eulogy.
Thanks for posting this. Bill Clinton is so inspiring.
How much did he get paid for this speech?
@Fox 10 Phoenix: why is this chilling??
When Bill turns up somewhere, "creepy" seems to be the more appropriate term.
Is that Monica under the lecturn?
42 President of America
Ok, but did I miss the chilling part? It was a wonderful eulogy.
sick sick man
Thank you for your wonderful speech Mr. President. The whole world misses him. May Allah bless Muhammad Ali. Rest in peace champ.
This hypocrite and war criminal is not fit to be here.
If the Ali family did not want him there he would not have been there. Are you Ali's brother? Who gives you the right to decide who should be or shouldn't be at his funeral you jackass.
Rip Ali.The Greatest
I'm Crying 😢
#%#& Bill Clinton
get screwed clinton
I really liked this, but I don't much like the comments about politics, religion, motives. I won't judge. But if you want to know more about what Ali meant to people and why Clinton had the respect he did for him, look at Billy Crystal's speech at his funeral and then search youtube for his 15 rounds segment. A black Muslim and a young white Jewish man became lifelong brothers.
Why is this man here? He could care less about Ali or black people in general. But, of course, he never misses an opportunity to promote his own or his scrag of wife's agenda. Disgusting isn't the word.
Because he was a friend of Ali and Muhammad requested him there.
Get your facts right. Do a little reading to get educated. ALI PLANNED HIS OWN FUNERAL. HE WANTED CLINTON TO SPEAK. As much as you dont like the idea - they must have been friends.
+allymayful
Exactly!
allymayful No they weren't 'friends'. Try to find a picture of them together. I'd be very interested to see one. As Clinton even said, Ali wanted a President to speak at his funeral. Who else could he get? Bush? Carter would have been a much better choice. Look at Clinton's record. He was nothing but a disgusting and slavish supporter of Israel which Ali certainly wasn't . Somehow, some way, Ali was bamboozled into accepting this man as a speaker. I find it hard to believe this was HIS choice.
+allymayful thank you.
Why chilling?
GOAT.👏👏👏👏
looking for vote
