Ali is my all time hero - the greatest sportsman the world has ever produced, probably the most important cultural figure of the 20th century, and invented rap without even trying

 

He got interviewed by Reg Gutteridge for ITV in Newcastle back in the day, and my Mum saw him walking through Newcastle before filming and she said it was just magnificent, people stopped dead in their tracks, old biddies dropping their shopping and everybody just chanting "ALI ALI".

His political views were, at times, dumb (pro-segregation etc), but he is definitely one of the funniest and most charismatic public figures since television was invented.
