This post is getting silly. There's no getting away from the fact that Ali was a great boxer.
No getting away from the fact that he was a
Separatist
philanderer
draft dodger
too.
The nicest thing I can say to excuse him, is that he was easily led.
He gave his money to scumbags who used and abused him, that is why he had to fight when he was well past his sell by date.
He was to be pitied when he fought Larry Holmes.
Thankfully Larry Holmes did have some humanity and took it very easy on Ali.

I think he has done some good in recent years-enough for positive recognition...

" On November 17, 2002, Muhammad Ali went to Afghanistan as "U.N. Messenger of Peace".[56] He was in Kabul for a three-day goodwill mission as a special guest of the UN.[57]
On January 8, 2005, Muhammad Ali was presented with the Presidential Citizens Medal by President George W. Bush.
He received the Presidential Medal of Freedom at a White House ceremony on November 9, 2005,[58][59] and the "Otto Hahn Peace Medal in Gold" of the UN Association of Germany (DGVN) in Berlin for his work with the US civil rights movement and the United Nations (December 17, 2005).
On November 19, 2005 (Ali's 19th wedding anniversary), the $60 million non-profit Muhammad Ali Center opened in downtown Louisville. In addition to displaying his boxing memorabilia, the center focuses on core themes of peace, social responsibility, respect, and personal growth."
As for him being a philanderer-him and how many other men in the public eye?
