Celebrities Mourn Boxing’s ‘Greatest’

Muhammad Ali, boxing’s “greatest of all time”, passed away on Friday (June 3rd) at the age of 74.

Celebrity fans and friends alike – from his daughters, Justin Timberlake, Oprah Winfrey, Madonna, President Obama and more – took to social media to remember the legendary boxer.

In his 2004 memoir, The Soul of a Butterfly: Reflections on a Life’s Journey, circulating around the internet, Ali wrote:

“I would like to be remembered as a man who won the heavyweight title three times, who was humorous, and who treated everyone right. As a man who never looked down on those who looked up to him, and who helped as many people as he could. As a man who stood up for his beliefs no matter what. As a man who tried to unite all humankind through faith and love. And if all that’s too much, then I guess I’d settle for being remembered only as a great boxer who became a leader and a champion of his people. And I wouldn’t even mind if folks forgot how pretty I was.”

Read ahead to see the reactions from those who love him.
