Muhammad Ali delivers ball to mound at new Miami Stadium

Just watched the below clip of Ali delivering the ball to the mound before the game. Damn, that Parkinsons has taken over his body. While I am glad that he is still with us, it was emotional watching how frail that man is today. And to think he was probably one of the most feared men in Sports in the 60s and 70s.

That was way cool the reception he received. Will always be the "Greatest of All Time". Thank you for sharing. Mark

I was at the game tonight. It was a big secret who was "throwing out the first pitch" so no one had any idea or even a guess and once we heard it was him coming out, everyone was like "no way" but yes, It was sad to see him like that. You could hear people speaking low about his appearance but he got a great warm reception from the crowd with most chanting "Ali". I never thought Id see Ali in person. Pretty surreal to see The Champ.

Hard to watch.

I wouldnt say hes the greatest, but certainly right up there.

Very true. Doesn't deserve the "great guy" praise he gets.

A great boxer for sure but he sure wasn't the "great guy" that people think. He converted to a religion that thought a certain race was evil so he could manipulate the draft system. Okay, he couldn't fight for a few years but that sure beat the jail time he was facing.
