Fergie86 376 Posted June 3, 2016 Muhammad Ali is now is in a 'grave condition' according to a well informed source in the last few minutes. Sadly it looks like the worst reports of his deterioration were true http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/muhammad-ali-s-family-gathers-ailing-boxer-s-hospital-bedside-n585611 Sad news looks like we are about to loose a legend, no doubt about it he will be the biggest death this year, will go for the 18th June 2016, Ali will put up one last fight before losing it.

Isn't not breathing a respiratory problem? It's probably not so much the 'rope-a-dope' as the 'give-'em-all-false-hope-a-dope'. Best of luck to him though, what an athlete.
