Who is the greatest in NBA? NFL? NHL? MLB? And of course powerlifting?
ALI: He talks a great deal and brags indeed-y of a muscular punch that's incredibly speedy. The fistic world was dull and weary. With a champ like Liston, things had to be dreary.
ALI: Then someone with color - someone with dash - brought fight fans running with cash.
ALI: This brash, young boxer is something to see. And the heavyweight championship is his destiny. This kid fights great. He's got speed and endurance. But if you sign to fight him, increase your insurance.
ALI: This kid's got a left. This kid's got a right. If he hits you once, you're asleep for the night
ALI: And as you lie on the floor while the ref counts 10, you pray that you won't have to fight me again
ALI: For I am the man this poem is about, the next champ of the world, there isn't a doubt. If Cassius says a cow can lay an egg, don't ask how. Grease that skillet.
ALI: He is the greatest. When I say two, there's never a third. Betting against me is completely absurd. When Cassius says a mouse can outrun a horse, don't ask how. Put your money where your mouse is.
ALI: I am the greatest.
SIEGEL: Those were excerpts from Muhammad Ali's poem, "I Am The Greatest," recorded in 1963
Who Is the Greatest? Luke 9
46 Then a dispute arose among them as to which of them would be greatest. 47 And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a little child and set him by Him, 48 and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all will be great.”
Why do my sins bother me so much? The closer I get to Jesus the more I see how much I need him. In the little things and in the big things.
