Seven years have passed since the world bid farewell to the one and only Muhammad Ali, a man whose legacy remains indelible in the hearts and minds of millions. Ali’s larger-than-life persona and unwavering commitment to his beliefs continue to inspire generations. His remarkable athletic prowess, coupled with his unwavering courage, inspired millions to dream big and stand up for their belief. Towards the end of his life, Ali faced the debilitating effects of Parkinson’s disease, a condition that gradually silenced the once-boisterous voice of the champion. Ali would eventually succumb to the disease and pass away in 2016 at the age of 74

Moreover, his daughter Rasheda Ali also stepped forward to share a heartfelt message that resonated with all who admired the legendary figure.
