In today's English newspaper, the headlines are,
"Even the greatest can't win this cruel battle."
In the full page article, it says that Ali has entered what threatens to be the final round of the longest and most arduous of all his epic fights.
He is celebrating his 65th birthday,and it is likely to be his last.
PD has been Ali's opponent for the last 22 years, and, although it wil be the death of him, sadly sooner rather than later, his victory has been in outboxing it long enough to reach the age of retirement.
I don't really agree with some of their comments, but it does show
that all the money in the world can't buy you a ticket to a cuire. Ali has $100 million, which was negotiated for the rights to his name.
He is a true fighter in many ways, and I do hope he goes way beyond the age of retirement, and proves them wrong.
