Ali Quotes
My dream is to leave this business on my own terms, and if it were my terms, I would love to do the Royal Rumble. I would love to do Wrestle Mania in New Orleans, because I had so many matches there over the years working for Mid-South. I was in the ring with Muhammad Ali in the Superdome. To close it there would be great.

Attracted Quotes
Had Elijah Muhammad tried to introduce an orthodox form of Arab-oriented Islam, I doubt if he would have attracted 500 people, but he introduced a form of Islam that would communicate with the people he had to deal with. He was the king to those who had no king, and he was the messiah to those some people thought unworthy of a messiah.

Anyone Quotes
We fought in 1974 - that was a long time ago. After 1981, we became the best of friends. By 1984, we loved each other. I am not closer to anyone else in this life than I am to Muhammad Ali. Why? We were forged by that first fight in Zaire, and our lives are indelibly linked by memories and photographs, as young men and old men.

Allowed Quotes
He had a Muhammad Ali-kind of self-confidence, ... There's something in that culture, that if you're very confident, very expressive, you must be close to death. Because for hundreds of years, you weren't allowed to be like that. So when you repress people, and they can't express their natural soul and you keep them back and push them down, down, down -- you're going to get the diamonds that come up. And 50's one of them. He's like Muhammad Ali.

Ali Quotes
You just know that without music, P. Diddy would still be something. Muhammad Ali was the same way. Boxing was just a platform. He would have been great in politics or something else. Your performance has to be there, but you've also got to be able to reach people and bring them to where you are. To make them feel you.

Absolutely Quotes
I've been many times to Dubai and the U.A.E., and I have friends that live there. It would be exciting to stage world heavyweight championship fights in the Arab world. It's something Muhammad Ali achieved when he fought in Zaire or the Philippines. It's absolutely exciting to fight in countries where you have never fought.
-
Against Quotes
The violence, destruction and hate which marred some of the protests against the publication of caricatures of Prophet Muhammad over the weekend are totally unacceptable. I am confident that they are not supported by the vast majority of people of Islamic faith, regardless of how offended they feel by these caricatures.

Ali Quotes
Right now, there's nobody out there to turn people on, ... This is the disease of Muhammad Ali ... With Muhammad, every time he did something, it was excitement. It's excitement now, when the guy comes around, walking around with Parkinson's. It's unfair to try to compare anybody to this kid.

Andy Quotes
They tried White on Hatcher, and that would have been fine if it was just about keeping Hatcher from scoring. What Muhammad did, he made him use all the energy in the world and now you have Downey off the ball. I thought that was a big difference in the game, great strategy by Andy Kennedy.

Admit Quotes
They've won. That is what is so appalling. My guess is that no one in the next generation is going to want to draw the Prophet Muhammad in Denmark and therefore I must ashamedly admit it: they've won. Had we known that it would lead to boycotts and Danish lives being endangered as we have seen, then the answer is 'no'.

Ali Quotes
As a 15-year-old, you think a 46-year-old is too old to win. It kind of was like watching an old boxer like Muhammad Ali fighting Larry Holmes and you hope he's going to beat the guy, but you think he's going to get the (stuffing) beat out of him. You're thinking, 'I hope he wins, but I don't think he's going to do it.' And then he came out with the goods. It was unbelievable.
