2016 takes another famous person:

Asked how he would like to be remembered, he once said: "As a man who never sold out his people. But if that's too much, then just a good boxer. I won't even mind if you don't mention how pretty I was."

A unique boxer that set the bar very high. Many generations will continue to learn from him

Indeed a sad loss.

Was really sad to watch his struggle with Parkinsons that they showed on TV a year or two ago.
Such a talent boxer.
RIP Muhammad!

Another one is taken from us.
He was certainly a great personality, and his interviews by Michael Parkinson were fascinating.
However, I still find the prospect of two human beings hitting each other with the aim of causing sufficient temporary brain damage to render one of them unconscious (and the undisputed risk of long term brain damage) in the name of entertainment rather repugnant.
But that is not to detract from the man himself.

Rip. He was probably one of a very few sportsmen worth caring about because of his activism and how he lived.
