Description
Here’s a tribute to the all time boxers, Muhammad Ali 1942-2016. Born Cassius Clay, Muhammad Ali who became the most famous athlete in the world passed away Friday Night after a long fight with Parkinson’s Disease. Ali first gained fame winning a Gold Medal at the Rome Olympics in 1960. A few years later he won the heavyweight title with a knockout of Sonny Liston. A day after the Liston fight he announced his conversion to Islam and changed his name becoming a lightning rod for controversy. That continued when Ali refused to enter the draft and was suspended from boxing losing the title. Muhammad Ali would eventually be vindicated and become one of the most colorful characters with his boastful rhymes, labeling himself the greatest. In 1974 using the rope a dope, Ali beat George Foreman to regain the title. With legendary duels with Joe Frazier and Ken Norton, Ali gained new popularity before retiring in 1981. In 1996 he was honored to light the cauldron at the Atlanta Olympics.

Whatever. I’m on Summer Break, and I don’t need a history lesson.
Actually, this kind of stuff has been an ongoing theme of placing ponies in old black and white pictures during famous (or infamous) photos.
That’s been a thing for years. I say it shouldn’t be deleted because of the history of this kind of medium.
He was a true… Patriot?
Ah de verdad? Intentalo…

Then this picture should be deleted.
Umm… I did that once or twice I think… They are deleted already…
Rest In Peace, fellow fighter.
