Muhammad Ali Center

I hope that you know who Muhammad Ali is, but in all honesty I didn’t know much before entering the museum. Muhammad Ali was a man who became the heavy-weight champion of the world three times over. His desire to box came from his red bike being stolen and the feeling of wanting to beat up the thief. He trained and worked hard from the age of 12 onward and then he entered the ring. He would go on the soon win the belt and be given rewards for his victory. He stayed the champion until the draft for the Vietnam War. Muhammad Ali refused to fight in the Vietnam War, earning him hate and a suspension from the ring. Ali went through many struggles, but one of the worst was when he returned to the ring only to lose to the new champion. Ali spent time training and working hard yet again to earn back his title. Once doing so, he had a new realization. He changed his name to Muhammad Ali, and went all over the world to learn about different peoples and bring hope and life into the less prosperous. It was amazing, and I wanted to cry whilst seeing the story. Muhammad Ali died four years ago to Parkinson’s, but he lives on inside hearts and those who are educated on what he has done.

One last blog and we’re done :((
