      Ali did what he was supposed to he loved the sport so much and God had planned for him. Atleast he enjoyed enough time . AS we see people who get cancers the young kids who died before enjoying anything on earth those who had no such diseases died before him. He lived his life up 55 yrs he was still strong. Praise be to God. For the life he gave him❤✔

    I believe the years that he was under scrutiny about THE DRAFT, cause him to have to fight to gain his status back after becoming rusty during THE YEARS that he was suspended. I believe that THE DRAFT WAS STRATEGICALLY IMPOSED ON MOHAMMED ALI, with the purpose f bringing him down; He lost his belt & could not fight, while being made to look like a defiant criminal, because he refused to be drafted. This was done to destroy his carreer, but he still came back, however, he came back older and after having an extremely long break from professional boxing. He then, at an older age, had certain things to do to become the CHAMP that he had seen in his DESTINY and his VISION.

      Most guys that box know the risks and others simply dont care or dont want to know to about it , Can you honestly go into a ring with an individual/opponent that is looking to literally kill you and tell yourself that "i will get brain damage, maybe not today but somewhere down the line i will
      but i DO NOT CARE" if not then seriously dont. Boxing is a beautiful sport but it is also the most brutal there is a reason why 95% of boxers get some form of brain damage. But if you want to continue it then i'll give you some tips
      1. Before you spar and after you spar drink water not enough that u feel like you're drowning but enough so that you don't feel dehydrated this is one of the biggest causes of headaches and damage in boxing always stay hydrated WATER PROTECTS YOU'RE BRAIN
      2. Never spar more than twice a week there was an mma fighter who had to retire early (before 30) and he said the reason was trauma to his brain because of sparring hard 3 times a week. If you're trainer tries to make you feel bad just make up excuses or tell him you dont feel up to it.
      3. Keep you're cardio
      The times you are sparring need to be the times you are learning not getting battered around because you neglected staying fit

      He almost certainly had cte compounding his Parkinson’s. I have Parkinson’s and my speech - so far - is normal. But when my levodopa wears off my gait is way off and my left arm stiffens. Granted, the disease is different for everyone. But many boxers without Parkinson’s have slurred speech. It’s very difficult to parse what’s Parkinson’s and what’s brain damage from boxing but I’d think the thousands of blows to the head didn’t help.
