Maybe I'm being carried away but isn't this a HUGE sports death? Who was the last sports person to die as big as Ali? I'm failing to even come up with anyone right now.

ETA: MAYBE Ted Williams???

The answer is nobody. Hell, I would say the last person to die who was as famous as Ali is Michael Jackson.

We have lost the greatest sports figure ever. The distance between Ali and whom ever you want to put 2nd is large.

Anyone who argues the contrary is not informed(nice way of putting it)
