Ali and Cosell were as good as it gets in sports entertainment. I'm sure he has done a lot of charity benefits. And who can forget the Ali-Fraizer bouts. Made a big mistake fighting Larry Holmes, the most underrated heavyweight of all time. Talk about brain damage. It was his ego that made him great, and his ego that destroyed him. Some good lessons there. When you look at the other people today who got the award, I see no problem with Ali getting one.

Actually it may have been that fight with the wrestler (can't remember his name off the top of my head) that actually may have done more damage than any of his boxing matches.
