MAN OF INSPIRATION: Muhammad Ali Muhammad Ali is an American former professional boxer, generally considered among the greatest heavyweights in the sports history. A controversial and polarizing figure during his early career, Ali is today widely regarded for the skills he displayed in the ring plus the values he exemplified outside of it: religious freedom, racial justice and the triumph of principle over expedience. He is one of the most recognized sports figures of the past 100 years, crowned Sportsman of the Century by Sports Illustrated and Sports Personality of the Century by the BBC. A fitting advert for the power of self-confidence if ever there was one, Muhammad Ali’s mantra of “I am the greatest” helped him on his way to becoming widely regarded as the greatest athlete of all time. Following a boxing career that contained some of the greatest fights ever seen , Ali dedicated himself to helping others, and is now recognised for his humanitarian efforts just as much as his power in the ring.
