“Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee” said by the famous heavyweight boxer and global icon, Muhammad Ali, before his contest with Sonny Liston in 1964. Watching him box was a treat, as he danced and joked with opponents. He was always shouting he was the “greatest” and he was. Ali suffered from Parkinson’s disease and died at the age of 74 from septic shock. He was born Cassius Clay, but in 1964 he converted to Islam and changed his name. He was a humanitarian, inspiring people to stand up for their beliefs, but called a draft dodger when he refused to fight during the war in Vietnam.
