He was the toughest fighter. In and out of the ring. He fought for his title and for his fight to stay alive. If I had to be In Ali's shoes I would appreciate the cost of a Hit. Especially if one landed me in "Life's Pit." Blocking the blows that hit not just my face However, also hitting my heart.... I can truly admire the man who made it as a boxer from his humble start. A family man. A believer in "equal" crowds.... His dying wish made me look back at a legend Feeling for him and his journey, quite proud. He was a great fighter in and out of the ring. Mohammad Ali...... I still hear your bells ring.

The Fighter Within
He was the toughest fighter. In and out of the ring. He fought for his title and for his fight to stay alive. If I had to be In Ali's shoes I would appreciate the cost of a Hit. Especially if one landed me in "Life's Pit." Blocking the blows that hit not just my face However, also hitting my heart.... I can truly admire the man who made it as a boxer from his humble start. A family man. A believer in "equal" crowds.... His dying wish made me look back at a legend Feeling for him and his journey, quite proud. He was a great fighter in and out of the ring. Mohammad Ali...... I still hear your bells ring.
This poem is dedicated to a great boxer, family man, and true caring individual. My boxing hero, "Mohammad Ali."
