Visiting the grave of boxing legend MUHAMMAD ALI

[@nancyaylward1176]

Muhammad Ali was one of those People who was bigger than life with a very large Personality. There were some People in His past that wanted to dislike Him, but just couldn’t! When I was a kid, I can remember when He was Cassius Clay. My Mama and I were both really into Boxing and We just loved watching Cassius Clay fight. He was a young, seasoned fighter, but with Angelo Dundee coaching Him, He became a Powerhouse! He won the Heavyweight Championship in 1964 against Sonny Liston. That was the first time I ever watched Boxing on TV, I was 8 years old! That was the same year He changed his name and became Muhammad Ali. He was stripped of His Heavyweight Title in 1967, because He refused to join the military. He was finally allowed to fight again in 1970. Sorry for rambling, can You tell that I’m a Fan? Thank You for taking us to Louisville, KY with You so that we could visit “The Greatest Fighter of All Time.” I just loved the inscription on his Tombstone and also the one on His standing Marker. As always Steve, this was a Great video. Sorry for getting carried away. Blessings to You and Jim! ❤❤❤

May he continue to rest in peace. 🎉 Greetings from your friend in the great Peach 🍑 State of Macon Georgia 🍑

Nice tour, as always. I visited Louisville once, I never saw anything as nice as this.

[@joachimgoethe7864]

I still remember the 1971 fight between Ali and Joe Frasier I was in the 4th grade. The whole school was following that fight.

[@davidboling1650]

Another great video i remember watching the Ali Forman fight . One of the best trash talkers in boxing.

[@TheRacarden]

I visited there last year after learning my Aunt Irene and Uncle Chester are buried there. Irene was the last of my dad’s siblings and lived to age 97. Also visited Ali’s and Col. Sanders’ graves. There is beautiful and amazing gravesite monuments throughout the cemetery.

Great video! One of his most memorable moments for me was away from the boxing ring when he lit the Olympic torch. Thanks for sharing Steve!

[@alextepe4309]

Every generation has their favorite boxer, but I think that Muhammad Ali was the best there ever was, with the heart of a champion and the soul of a poet. May he RIP.

[@LesterMoore]

Such a lovely epitaph. Very fitting for such a moving person. I have to go pay my respects. Put it on my bucket list.

That’s a very nice cemetery with all the flowers. He came to LaPorte Texas, to visit Boys Harbor & since it was a few blocks away. My mom and I ran down there & got our picture taken with Ali. He was nice to everyone.

[@latonyaboateng1087]

[@MrHeadbanger366]

He was The Greatest in and out of the ring.

[@natlee8947]

[@winniethepoohandeeyore2]

As I look across my room to a picture of him, His iconic white trunks and in the ring. Do you know the story of how /why he got into boxing as a child?

[@shannonmanley9217]

[@peaceworld5393]

Thank you Steve 💙 🕯️🏆🕯️

[@sheafan1971]

Thanks for all the great videos. I just added videos to my channel-Gravesites of.. and more.

[@inezsitu7291]

My husband's maternal grandmother was a friend of Muhammad Ali's. In the winter of 1979, Ali was being trained by Panama Lewis in Puerto Rico. Ali had almost no money. My husband's grandmother would often pay for Ali's meals at Howard Johnson's. They also went to Back Street Hong Kong.

[@mar-un8sf]

I saw Mr. Ali several years ago with his entourage at an airport. The poor man was not looking well, but he was walking rather than being pushed in a wheelchair. RIP, Mr. Ali.

[@LeAnimal65]

STEVE!!!

[@ericfreshcorn3590]

Thanks Steve Have you Visited the Grave of Jackie Gleason

[@wandahall4435]

❤❤❤😢😢😢😮😮😮 Steve ❤❤❤

[@marlenepearson3936]

He really was the greatest boxer of all time. I watched several of his fights. And I don't consider myself a boxing fan 😂 His grave and surrounding area are what you'd expect. I would have fallen over if you had shown a simple, small marker. Thanks Steve 😊

[@violetdreams1799]

float like a butterfly sting like a bee

[@sharronhogan523]

You were in my home town Louisville Kentucky

[@LawyerCalhoun1]

I have only two sports heroes. Ted Williams and Muhammad Ali. Ted was the best baseball hitter in my lifetime, but gave up years to serve as a fighter pilot in the just wars, WW2 and Korea. Ali gave up the heart of his career because he refused to serve in an unjust war. Unfortunately. visiting Ted is very problematic.

[@travelingwithmikeandpam9074]

I remember the greatest! Outside of boxing he was a normal, nice guy!

[@timwright2395]

Thank you

[@lindastevens6861]

Beautiful place

[@Denny-ph]

No doubt the greatest

[@avon1243]

I remember when he was Cassius Clay too. I won a game of Trivial Pursuit by knowing that! What cemetery are you going to be buried in and why?

[@Lava1964]

Very nice video, Steve. I wrote a book on boxing history titled When the Heavyweight Title Mattered which has gotten many positive reviews. I recommend it to all the boxing fans commenting here.

[@danielguy1963]

Floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee👍

[@vickynichols7308]

You aren't to far from where I live I live in pleasureville that's in Henry County about 30 miles North of Louisville be safe.

[@ronaldmiller2740]

HI STEVE THX. FOR ALL YOUR GREAT VIDEOS .. IF YOU AND OTHER WOULD LIKE TO VISIT HIS STAR ,, WALK OF FAME ITS AT 6801 HOLLYWOOD BLVD. ((ON THE WALL))THIS IS BECAUSE MR.ALI WAS A MUSLIM AND DIDNT WANT PEOPLE STEPPING ON THE STAR , MUHAMMAD R.I.P. AMEN..

[@ericlomax1793]

I have seen on the Find A Grave website that there is a copper bust of his image there at his grave. Hopefully no one there has stolen it or attempted to steal it as a souvenir for themselves. I know there was a stone bust of Jim Morrison at his grave in Paris, France 🇫🇷 but that was taken by someone who wanted it as a souvenir for himself. I have seen on the KZbin video series “Hollywood Graveyard” where host Arthur Dark went there and there was plexiglass shields around his grave as people would keep breaking off pieces of it for souvenirs, plexiglass shields is also around the grave of Poet Oscar Wilde as some said to me that lots of women left their lipstick imprint on his grave there. Well hopefully next video you can try to get Harland Sanders grave there and I have seen him profiled on the History Channel TV Show “The Food That Built America”. He could be a mean and shrewd businessman especially when he had his gas station and restaurant there in Kentucky, even where he got into a shootout with rivals who were painting over signs for his gas station back during the Great Depression. If you saw the opening ceremonies of the 1984 Olympics where Muhammad Ali light the Olympic Torch at the LA Memorial Colosseum. I wanted to go some events but I couldn’t, now that they are coming back, I certainly am going to go this time.

[@jodialston6305]

I’m like a butterfly out like a bee

[@jack2breeze]

My brother met him back in the 80s in my town. Alli signed a dollar bill for him but beingblow on money my brother spent it later on ugh!

[@gregsayre4700]

at least you didn't get locked in again

[@darrellgenton]

Steve My Great Grandfather is Buried only about 300 feet away from Muhammads or Calius Clay's Grave.My Great Grandfather's name is Marc Louis Genton.

[@leesashriber5097]

Beautiful cemetery. I met Ali and his wife in the 80's when they stayed at our hotel. Such a nice couple. Thank you Steve. Always respectful and thorough and I appreciate you even more for that. A beautiful grave!! ❤️🙏🕊️
