"The Greatest" is the most succinct and definitive description of a truly transcendent athlete, one few in any sport could lay claim to without debate.
In every senses of the word, Muhammad Ali was The Greatest - the best heavyweight fighter of all-time and a game-changer for the sport of boxing.
Controversial, bombastic, cocky, political, outrageous, bold, and above all else supremely talented, Ali was like no other fighter that came before him or after.
