关于拳王阿里说过的两段话,求原文
呵呵,替朋友找到了1)Ali: I ain't draft-doggin'...I ain't burnin' no flag, and I ain't runnin' to Canada. I'm stayin' right here. You wanna send me to jail? Fine. You go right ahead. I've been in jail for 400 years. I can be there for four or five more. But I ain't goin' no 10,000 miles to help murder and kill other poor people. If I wanna die, I'll die right here right now, fightin' you, if I wanna die. You my enemy. Not no Chinese, no Vietcong, no Japanese. You my opposer when I want freedom. You my opposer when I want justice. You my opposer when I want equality. You want me to go somewhere and fight for you. You won't even stand up for me right here in America...for my rights and my religious beliefs. You wont't even stand up for me right here at home. ()2)整封信供朋友阅读AN OPEN LETTER TO THE CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE OF AFGHANISTANFROM UN MESSENGER OF PEACE MUHAMMAD ALIDear Young People,I want to share with you some of feelings about how bright your future is. My life and my success were built upon the preparation that I practiced when I was a young person growing up in a poor place in America. And just like myself, I know that you will succeed if you can always keep these three things in mind:1. Have faith and be a good Muslim. Your faith will help you through the most difficult days.2. Prepare your mind for the challenges of life. Your education will be an important part of your life. You must study hard, respect your teachers, and follow their guidance.3. Prepare your body, by practicing physical activity and sports, because sports builds fellowship, character, and independence. I know that for many of you, it may be difficult to participate in athletic activity because you may not have all the opportunities now, but we must all work together to create more opportunities.I say these things as I prepare to leave your beautiful country, where it has been both an honor and pleasure to spend the past three days in my role as the United Nations Messenger of Peace. This is a trip to which I had been looking forward for so long, and I am pleased to say that it has exceeded my expectations.There has been much that has been achieved so far in Afghanistan by the humanitarian community working together with the Afghan government and people. I saw that myself first-hand yesterday, when I sat among young girl students in a UNICEF-supported school. To see the girls studying, knowing that they had been denied opportunities to learn for many years, was inspiring.I saw too how the most vulnerable people here in Kabul are being provided with support from the World Food Programme, through its women's bakery programme that provides both income to widows and of course vital food supplies to those most in need.Above all, I believe I have seen - in the young people like yourselves that I met - not just the Afghanistan of today, but the Afghanistan of tomorrow. That tomorrow will be your tomorrow, and the world must not fail you. This is where the adults of the world can make a difference to your lives, by continuing their good work for the rebuilding of your country.I want to thank you, my young friends, for showing me how strong you are in spite of the hardships your country still faces. You must keep that strength. You must continue to hope for a brighter tomorrow. You are the life and soul of Afghanistan.With love,Muhammad Ali()祝阅读愉快

拳王阿里的英文是啥
穆罕默德·阿里(美国) (MUHAMMAO ALI) 出生年月1942年1月7日 出生地点:美国肯塔基州 职业生涯:1960年10月29日至1981年12月11日 身高:1.905米 体重:99.9公斤 战绩:56胜5负,其中37场击倒对手。
1942年1月17号,美国肯塔基州的路易斯维尔。
一代拳王卡休斯·克莱,也就是后来的穆罕默德·阿里就出生在这里。
和当时美国其他各州的情况一样,种族隔离也是肯塔基人民生活的一部分。
这里是供有色人种居民吃饭的地方,而他们是不允许进入专为白人开设的餐馆的。
尽管很多人为此游行抗议,但这实际上,还是被大多数人所接受了。
阿里和他的弟弟鲁道夫就是在这种环境中长大的,而阿里从小就希望,能用自己的力量来改变这一切。
对此,他的母亲一直记忆犹新。
阿里的母亲奥德萨·克莱说:“他曾经是个快乐的小男孩,总是跑来跑去地干着什么,很愉快。
他一直喜欢、也一直要和别人打斗。
他开始参加拳击运动的时候总是对我说,早晚他会把奥林匹克运动会的金牌拿回来,他做到了。
还有一次,是他在四岁的时候,他曾经对我说,总有一天,他要成为世界冠军,是的,他也做到了。
” 从12岁开始,阿里就在当地的一家健身房练习拳击。
阿里的启蒙教练乔·马丁说:“就在下面的这栋楼上的体育馆里,每年这个地区的黑市商人都要在那聚一次,展示他们的服装和各式各样的商品,当然还有一些气球、糖果之类小孩子们喜欢的东西。
那年他12岁,骑着一辆自行车来的,但他买气球或糖果什么的时候,有人偷了他的自行车。
他的心情很不好,说是要找警察,有人告诉他下面就有警察,他就直奔下楼去了。
他说他原来不知道体育馆在这儿,看一下才行,还说要是找到偷自行车的人,就要拿鞭子抽他。
我对他说‘你不如先学会打拳’,他说‘我愿意学’,我说‘你可以从今天晚上或者明天晚上开始’。
第二天天一黑他就来了,他很少不来,每次我到的时候他就已经来了,我走了以后他还在这儿练。
” 1960年初,刚满18岁的阿里开始参加业余拳击比赛。
已经接受过六年训练的阿里刚一出道就让人们眼前一亮。
阿里的启蒙教练说:“我还记得他做过一些可笑的事情,那是一次他和芝加哥的重量级拳击冠军带金拳套的拳击手比赛。
我们到了那儿,因为他是第一次出台,要称重量。
那人是冠军,先称然后是他。
他站在秤台上转向我问道:‘马丁先生今天晚上你急着到哪儿去吗
’我不明白他是什么意思,我说:‘没有啊
还没有定,为什么
’他说:‘我想要是你急着去哪儿,我就在第一个回合把这家伙打倒,你就可以早些走了。
’” 果然,在比赛中,对方根本就不是阿里的对手。
穿深色短裤的就是阿里。
在第一回合即将结束时,阿里连续用重拳将对手击倒,提前结束了比赛,也实现了他在赛前向教练夸下的海口。
凭借优异的表现,18岁的阿里成为美国代表队的成员,出征1960年的罗马奥运会。
在81公斤级的比赛中,阿里三战全胜,顺利进入决赛。
他的对手波兰人皮埃茨克斯基,是三届欧洲冠军,和1956年奥运会的铜牌得主。
他在场上的精湛技艺令人叹服,有人形容他的出拳,像蜜蜂刺人一样的犀利,而他脚下的步法,又像飞舞的蝴蝶一样轻盈、灵活。
此外,年轻的阿里不仅在场上表现突出,在生活中他也非常活跃。
在奥运村里,他向每个人问好,还和大家开各种玩笑,成了那里知名度最高的运动员。
三个回合下来,阿里以点数的优势战胜对手,获得了自己唯一的一枚奥运会金牌。
而他独创的步法,也被人们形象地称为蝴蝶步。
回国后的阿里,从机场开始,就感受到了人们的热情。
一时之间,他也成了美国人追捧的对象。
眼前的荣誉,让阿里误以为,他已经用胜利改变了人们对有色人种的偏见,但依然残酷的现实,打碎了他的梦想。
阿里的弟弟鲁道夫·阿里说:“1960年穆罕默德·阿里从奥林匹克运动会回来,他在罗马赢得了奥林匹克金牌。
在他回国的那些日子,还没有施行取消种族隔离政策。
他把金牌挂在脖子上到闹市区的一家饭店吃饭,但是没有人给他服务。
他说:‘我是冠军
我是金牌得主
’得到的回答是:‘我们才不管你是谁呢
’” 愤怒的阿里将自己的金牌扔进了大海,他说,我再也不愿意为这样的国家效力了。
1960年10月29号,对阿里来说是一个新的开始。
这一天,他参加了自己的第一场职业比赛,并获得了胜利。
在接下来的一年多时间里,阿里几乎取得了全胜,其中有七次,是直接将对手击倒在地而取胜的。
通过一场一场的胜利,到了1964年,22岁的阿里,终于赢得了与索尼·利斯顿争夺重量级拳王称号的机会。
而这也将是他参加的第一场拳王争霸赛。
1964年2月25号,阿里在迈阿密轻取利斯顿,成为新一代拳王,从此,职业拳击进入了阿里时代。
说起职业拳击,有一个场景您一定不会陌生,那就是选手们在赛场内外的唇枪舌剑。
一方面,他们希望借此给对手造成心理压力,另外,就是想通过这种方式,对外进行宣传,也算是一种自我炒作的方式。
但有一点您大概不知道,这件事的始作俑者就是拳王阿里。
相对来讲,当年的职业拳击运动员都比较朴实,很少直接对外发表自己的观点。
他们与外界沟通最常用的渠道就是自己的经纪人。
但阿里却不是这样。
年轻时的阿里不仅拳头硬,脚步快,而且伶牙俐齿,说起话来咄咄逼人,常常令他的对手,甚至采访他的记者很难招架。
1964年2月25号,美国佛罗里达州的迈阿密。
22岁的卡休斯·克莱,也就是穆罕默德·阿里在第七回合,战胜了索尼·利斯顿,成了新的世界重量级拳击冠军。
但在当时,并不是所有人都认可了这位自信得近乎狂妄的年轻人。
在赛后新闻发布会上,阿里说:“谁最棒
(你下一个和谁打)谁最棒
你看他们都不说吧
不公道,哪儿都没有公道
没有公道
他们不给我公道
(你和谁打 你和谁打)(告诉他们你和谁打)我都告诉你们了,谁最棒
我再给你们一次机会,谁最棒
” 2月26号,也就是克莱成为新拳王的第二天,他向全世界宣布,他已经皈依伊斯兰教,并将自己的名字改为穆罕默德·阿里。
1964年5月,阿里第一次踏上了非洲的土地,在那里,他受到了各国政府元首级别的接待,也感受到了当地人民超乎寻常的热情。
从非洲返回芝加哥后,阿里与大他一岁的黑人女孩桑吉·罗伊相识。
1964年8月14号,两人举行了婚礼。
在接受电视采访时,记者问:“那么你是不是认为在你取得了这个(拳王)称号之后,你的个性改变了呢
” 阿里回答:“是啊,我有点放松了,或者说变得稳定了。
你们能看到我有一个十分可爱的妻子,我不再像我过去那样说话了,她不喜欢我说得太多。
她告诉我要安静,行动能说明一切。
她说我不用再说什么了,她自己也不喜欢说话,她只喜欢听。
” 桑吉·罗伊是阿里的第一任妻子,她说:“我遇见阿里好像是在一个星期三,还是那一天的下午,然后我就再没有离开过他。
他在我走进他家的门后五分钟,就要求我嫁给他。
我没有想过这个,我说‘好吧
’” 5月25号,阿里再次迎战索尼·利斯顿,不过这一次,状态正佳的阿里没有浪费时间,他仅用了一个回合,就将对手击倒在地,首次卫冕成功。
尽管取得了胜利,但场内的观众却对阿里发出了嘘声。
在当时的美国,黑人作为少数民族,受到当局的歧视,而穆斯林黑人则成了弱势中的弱势,因此,从阿里改名字的那天开始,他就成了当时美国主流社会的叛徒。
阿里接下来的对手是帕特森,他是当时唯一一位曾经两次作为挑战者,登上拳王宝座的拳手。
在赛前电视采访时,阿里说:“我喜欢给我的对手起外号。
你知道兔子是一种连自己的影子都非常害怕的动物,一旦被逼到角落,就僵住了、动弹不了了,所以我就叫帕特森“兔子”,因为他就有兔子的这种特性。
” 前重量级拳王弗洛伊德·帕特森说:“我只想和他打,不是为了钱,就是想夺回冠军,让它属于全美国,而不仅仅属于穆斯林黑人。
” 根据当时的规则,每一场职业拳击比赛15个回合,在顶住了阿里前11回合的猛烈进攻后,帕特森在第12回合由于体力不支,失去了还手能力。
裁判终止了比赛,阿里再次蝉联拳王的称号。
但全场的观众,几乎都不站在阿里这边。
就在实现了三连冠的阿里傲视职业拳坛的同时,他的家庭出现了问题。
由于感情不和,阿里与罗伊在1966年1月10号离婚,结束了这场不到一年半的婚姻。
60年代中期,越南战争爆发。
随着战事的不断升级,阿里也面临着服兵役的问题。
而他在媒体上公开发表的反战宣言,则震惊了全美国。
2003年好莱坞出品的电影《拳王阿里》忠实地再现了这一幕。
阿里说:“我绝不会跑到万里之外去谋杀那里的穷人,如果我要死,我就死在这里,咱们来拼个你死我活!如果我要死的话,你们才是我的敌人,与中国人、越南人、日本人无关。
我想要自由,你们不给;我想要公正,你们不给;我想要平等,你们也不给。
你们却让我去别处替你们作战
在美国你们都没有站出来保护我的权益和信仰,你们在自己的国家都做不到这些
” 1966年2月,伊利诺伊州运动员委员会召开记者会,要求阿里对自己地反战言行公开道歉。
阿里:“我在此不准备像新闻界给我安排好道歉的那样去表示歉意。
” 记者:“那么你说的那些非爱国的言论怎么办
” 阿里:“必要的时候,我会向政府或者有关人士直接说明。
” 记者:“那么这次你不打算对你的讲话表示歉意吗
” 阿里:“这得向政府说清。
” 记者:“如果我记得不错的话,你说过你是人民的冠军,对吗
” 阿里:“是的,先生。
” 记者:“你认为你的行为符合一个人民的冠军吗
” 阿里:“是的,先生。
” 此后,美国很多州都吊销了阿里的拳击执照,于是,他连续参加了多场在美 国国境外进行的拳王卫冕战。
在那里,阿里再次成了英雄。
1966年5月21号,英国伦敦。
阿里在第六回合击败挑战者库珀。
5月29号,加拿大多伦多。
阿里点数战胜施瓦罗。
8月6号,英国伦敦。
阿里第三回合击倒布莱恩。
9月10号,德国法兰克福。
阿里第12回合击倒米尔登博格。
11月14号,回到美国德克萨斯州德休斯顿,阿里第三回合击败挑战者威廉姆斯,第7次成功卫冕。
1967年1月17号,依然受到征兵问题困扰的阿里,度过了自己的25岁生日。
十几天后,他将迎战另一位挑战者特莱尔。
但在赛前的一次电视直播记者会上,阿里的名字再次成了人们关注的焦点。
阿里:“你为什么不叫我的名字,伙计
” 记者:“那么你叫什么呢
几年前,你告诉过我你叫卡休斯·克莱。
” 阿里:“我从来没有告诉过你我叫卡休斯·克莱,我叫穆罕默德·阿里。
” 记者:“你可以在比赛结束之前在全场中央宣布,如果你现在不这样的话, 为了便于广播,我就称你为‘他’行吗
” 记者:“一周以前,你和特莱尔几乎动了手,可有不少人说那是为了广告而搞的噱头。
” 阿里:“他们有权这样认为,因为过去我的确是为了广告做过不少这类的事情。
但是这一次是认真的,我差一点就动手了。
” 记者:“那么你恨他吗
” 阿里:“不不,我并不恨他
我不恨任何人,但我不喜欢他及他的所作所为,他一直叫我卡休斯·克莱,尽管他知道我叫穆罕默德·阿里。
” 比赛中,短裤上有红色条纹的阿里始终占有绝对的优势,但他并没有急于将对手打倒。
他不停地向特莱尔大声吼叫:“说
我叫什么名字
我到底叫什么” 经过15个回合的较量,阿里最终以点数取胜,第八次卫冕成功。
1967年3月22号,美国纽约。
阿里在第七回合击倒了挑战者弗雷,再次蝉联拳王称号。
但时隔不久,被阿里连夺九次的拳王桂冠被强制收回,原因是美国地方法院,以拒绝服兵役的罪名,吊销了阿里在全美各州的拳击执照,并没收了他的护照,阿里还将面临5年监禁的处罚。
从此以后,拳王阿里赋闲在家。
在强大的压力面前,阿里并没有屈服。
他经常出现在各种集会,甚至电视节目当中,进行反战宣传。
同时,他也没有放弃训练,终于,阿里在1970年重出江湖,续写了拳王的神话。
1967年8月17号,25岁的阿里与他的第二任妻子,17岁的比琳达结婚。
一年后,阿里的大女儿玛丽亚姆出生了。
这使得赋闲在家的阿里,享受了一段难得的天伦之乐。
阿里在家逗孩子,说:“这个家庭只不过多了一张大嘴,没有别的,只不过多了一张大嘴。
把奶瓶给我
” 六十年代末,美国国内的反战呼声越来越高,而作为反战人士的代表,阿里也获得了更多的支持。
1970年,美国最高法院裁定,恢复阿里的拳手资格,这位经过两年多修整的前拳王,终于重出江湖了。
但由于两年多没有参加正式比赛,加上年龄和体重的增长,复出后的阿里表现得并不尽如人意,被人津津乐道得蝴蝶步法,也很难在比赛中施展了。
1971年5月8号,阿里作为挑战者,在比赛中两次被当时的拳王弗雷泽击倒,挑战宣告失败。
1973年5月31号,他以点数输给了肯·诺顿,经历了复出后的第二场失利。
这使得人们开始怀疑,阿里的时代真的一去不返了吗
与阿里形成鲜明反差的是,年轻的乔治·福尔曼开始崭露头角。
在同样与这两位拳手的交锋当中,福尔曼取得了全胜。
1973年1月22号,身穿红色短裤的福尔曼六次将弗雷泽击倒,仅用了两个回合,就夺下了拳王金腰带。
1974年3月,他再次以绝对的优势战胜诺顿,卫冕成功。
在取得了四十场连胜之后,福尔曼的下一个对手,就将是穆罕默德·阿里。
这场比赛的组织者,就是当年初出茅庐,但现在已经在职业拳击界呼风唤雨的经纪人唐·金。
他把比赛安排在了非洲国家,原扎伊尔的首都金沙萨。
而人们也将这场比赛称为丛林大战。
尽管阿里当时并不是拳王,与福尔曼的实力对比也处在下风,但当地人将他敬若神明。
阿里受欢迎的程度,远远超过了任何人的想象。
从这个意义上来讲,福尔曼即将面对的对手,将是阿里和整个金沙萨。
职业拳击经纪人亨利·施瓦茨说:“当福尔曼到达扎伊尔,有人为他翻译那里牌子上的话,意思是:阿里,杀了他
乔治变得比以前更愁眉不展了,并且也从那时起,乔治就想离开扎伊尔了。
咱们换一个地方比赛,要么干脆索性就不比赛了,这是乔治当时的感觉这种感觉与日俱增。
” 1974年10月30号,金沙萨,阿里挑战拳王福尔曼。
专门为这场比赛修建的体育场内座无虚席,而挑战者阿里也在拳台上,指挥所有的观众有节奏地高喊:“阿里,杀了他
” 身穿白色短裤地就是阿里。
比赛开始后,福尔曼很快就将阿里逼到了拳台的角落,展开猛攻。
而阿里则完全放弃了移动,只是被动地靠在栏绳上招架,伺机进行还击。
这样的情况,一直持续了七个回合。
正当人们以为阿里已经大势已去的时候,转机在第八回合出现了。
以逸待劳的阿里用组合拳,将体力下降的福尔曼击倒在地,干净利落地赢得了这场丛林大战地胜利,也夺回了阔别7年时间的拳王金腰带。
此后,阿里又连续十次蝉联拳王称号,其中就包括1975年10月,在菲律宾马尼拉战胜弗雷泽的世纪之战。
1978年9月,阿里点数战胜斯平克斯,最后一次获得拳王金腰带。
此后不久,36岁的阿里宣布退出拳坛,这样,他就以在20年中22次获得重量级拳王称号的骄人战绩,结束了自己的职业生涯。
在此期间,阿里与他的第二任妻子比琳达离婚。
1977年6月,他第三次结婚,这一次的新娘是贝罗尼卡·波石。
此后,阿里贝诊断患有帕金森综合症。
尽管如此,他依然作为文化和体育的使者,穿梭于世界各国。
值得一提的是,阿里与夫人波石在1985年访问了中国,受到我国人民的热烈欢迎。
而阿里对中国也并不陌生,早在1979年,他就曾访问北京,还受到了同志的亲切接见。
此后不久,阿里结束了他的第三段婚姻,1986年11月19号,阿里与他现在的太太朗尼结婚了。
阿里的妻子朗尼·阿里 说:“穆罕默德·阿里和我是好朋友,是丈夫和妻子,他还像是我的兄弟,所以这是个不同寻常的组合。
” 1996年8月2号,亚特兰大奥运会男子篮球决赛中场休息。
当时的国际奥委会主席萨马兰奇先生将一枚特制的罗马奥运会金牌挂在了阿里的胸前。
尽管当时的赛场内,云集了众多梦三队的篮球明星,但人们依然把最为热烈的掌声,献给了他们心中的英雄——穆罕默德·阿里。
作为前奥运会的拳击冠军,阿里因为反对以前美国政府施行的种族歧视政策,将自己的金牌扔进了大海。
而这枚失而复得的金牌,不仅圆了阿里的一个心愿,更说明了人们对这位拳王不畏强权、扶危济困的赞赏与肯定。
1999年9月,阿里与他第三任妻子的女儿莱拉,进入女子职业拳坛,并很快取得了较好的成绩。
阿里的女儿莱拉·阿里说:“ 我不想拿自己和父亲作比较,我们是完全不同的。
但有一点,作为他的女儿,我自然会有一些独特的拳击技术,这是别人不可能具备的。
在现阶段,我认为自己棒极了
” 一些商家看中了这对拳坛父女的商业价值,最近,一家运动品牌就利用电脑技术,让阿里父女在拳台上同场竞技。
在这样的比赛中,我们看到的,并不是胜负,而是一种生命力的延续。

这里有 拳王阿里所有的原声带应该在里面
谁能提供一篇拳王阿里的英文介绍
Three-time world heavyweight boxing champion Muhammad Ali, known for his lyrical charm and boasts as much as for his powerful fists, has moved far beyond the boxing ring in both influence and purpose. Ali won an Olympic gold medal and later tossed it into a river because he was disgusted by racism in America. As a young man he was recruited by Malcolm X to join the Nation of Islam. He refused to serve in Vietnam--a professional fighter willing to serve time in jail for his pacifist ideals. He has contributed to countless, diverse charities and causes. And his later years have found him interested in world politics as he has battled to keep Parkinson's disease at bay. Muhammad Ali was born Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr., on January 17, 1942, and was raised in a clapboard house at 3302 Grand Avenue in middle-class Louisville, Kentucky. He began boxing at the age of 12. A white Louisville patrolman named Joe Martin, who had an early television show called Tomorrow's Champions, started Ali working out in Louisville's Columbia Gym, but it was a black trainer named Fred Stoner who taught Ali the science of boxing. Stoner taught him to move with the grace of a dancer, and impressed upon him the subtle skills necessary to move beyond good and into the realm of great. After winning an Olympic gold medal at 18, Ali signed the most lucrative contract--a 50-50 split--negotiated by a beginning professional in the history ofboxing, with a 12-member group of millionaires called the Louisville Sponsoring Group. Later, he worked his way into contention for the coveted heavyweight title shot by boasting and creating media interest at a time when, by his own admission, he was only ranked number nine on the list of contenders. Even from the beginning, it was clear that Ali was his own man--quick, strong-willed, original, and witty. In 1961 he told Sports Illustrated's Gilbert Rogin, Boxing is dying because everybody's so quiet.... What boxing needs is more ... Clays. Ali knew that his rhymes and press-grabbing claims would infuse more interest and more money into the sport of boxing, and he was his own best public relations man. In February of 1964 he told readers of Sports Illustrated, If I were like a lot of ... heavyweight boxers ... you wouldn't be reading this story right now. If you wonder what the difference between them and me is, I'll break the news: you never heard of them. I'm not saying they're not good boxers. Most of them ... can fight almost as good as I can. I'm just saying you never heard of them. And the reason for that is because they cannot throw the jive. Cassius Clay is a boxer who can throw the jive better than anybody. The following month Ali--then still Cassius Clay--fought Sonny Liston in a match of classic contenders for the heavyweight championship of the world. The Miami fight almost single-handedly restored intelligence and balance to boxing. Cassius Clay had been chanting the war cry Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee for weeks; he beat Liston in a display of beautiful, controlled boxing. Liston could hit with deadly power, but Ali utilized his skills and courage with forethought and aplomb. He won the fight to become heavyweight champion of the world. At the tender age of 22 Ali knew that he was something above and beyond a great boxer: He had marketing sense, political finesse, and a feeling of noble purpose. Throughout his career and life, Ali has always professed to want to help other black Americans--and he has, time and time again. When he returned from Italy, having just won an Olympic gold medal, he was so proud of his trophy that he wore it day and night and showed it to everyone, whether they wanted to see it or not. In the Philadelphia Inquirer Ali's first wife remembered him saying I was young, black Cassius Marcellus Clay, who had won a gold medal for his country. I went to downtown Louisville to a five-and-dime store that had a soda fountain. I sat down at the counter to order a burger and soda pop. The waitress looked at me.... 'Sorry, we don't serve coloreds,' she said. I was furious. I went all the way to Italy to represent my country, won a gold medal, and now I come back to America and can't even get served at a five-and-dime store. I went to a bridge, tore the medal off my neck and threw it into the river. That gold medal didn't mean a thing to me if my black brothers and sisters were treated wrong in a country I was supposed to represent. While in Miami, at the age of 21, Ali was inspired by human rights activist Malcolm X to become a member of the Muslim faith. The following year Malcolm X said of Ali, as was quoted by Houston Horn in Sports Illustrated, [He] will mean more to his people than any athlete before him. He is more than [first black major-league baseball player] Jackie Robinson was, because Robinson is the white man's hero. But Cassius is the black man's hero. Do you know why? Because the white press wanted him to lose [his heavyweight championship bout] ... because he is a Muslim. You notice nobody cares about the religion of other athletes. But their prejudice against Clay blinded them to his ability. Twelve years later, on Face The Nation, Ali said We don't have Black Muslims, that's a press word. We have white brothers, we have brown, red, and yellow, all colors can be Muslims.... I'm looking for peace one day with all people. Cassius Clay, Jr., was given the name Muhammad Ali by Muslim patriarch Elijah Muhammad; it was not just a name, but a title meaning beloved of Allah, deity of the Muslim faith. Ali retained his world heavyweight champion title in June of 1965 by again knocking out Sonny Liston, this time with a stunning right-hand punch to the side of the head. The knock-out blow was thrown with the astounding speed that separated Ali from other heavyweights; it had sufficient force to lift Liston's left foot-- upon which most of his weight was resting--clear off the canvas. As a Muslim and thus, a conscientious objector, Muhammad Ali refused to even consider going to Vietnam in 1966; a tremendous public outcry erupted against him. According to Jack Olsen in Sports Illustrated, The governor of Illinois found Clay 'disgusting,' and the governor of Maine said Clay 'should be held in utter contempt by every patriotic American.' An American Legion post in Miami asked people to 'join in condemnation of this unpatriotic, loudmouthed, bombastic individual.' The Chicago Tribune waged a choleric campaign against holding the next Clay fight in Chicago.... The noise became a din, the drumbeats of a holy war. TV and radio commentators, little old ladies ... bookmakers, and parish priests, armchair strategists at the Pentagon and politicians all over the place joined in a crescendo of get-Cassius clamor. Although Ali had not been charged or arrested for violating the Selective Service Act--much less convicted--the New York State Athletic Commission and World Boxing Association suspended his boxing license and stripped him of his heavyweight title in May of 1967, minutes after he officially announced that he would not submit to induction. Ali said to Sports Illustrated contributor Edwin Shrake, I'm giving up my title, my wealth, maybe my future. Many great men have been tested for their religious beliefs. If I pass this test, I'll come out stronger than ever. Eventually Ali was sentenced to five years in prison, released on appeal, and his conviction overturned three years later. In November of 1970 Ali fought Jerry Quarry in Atlanta. His victory was a symbol of release and freedom to the 5,000 people watching the fight; Ali had personally survived his vilification by much of the American public, but more, he had reclaimed his professional reputation and prominence. Four months later Ali had the world as his audience when he went up against Joe Frazier in New York. There he fell from invincibility; suddenly Frazier reigned as heavyweight champ. Man, I hit him with punches that'd bring down the walls of a city, Frazier said to Mark Kram in Sports Illustrated. Ali responded, It was like death. Closest thing to dyin' that I know of. Ali regained his title as world heavyweight champion in 1974 after defeating George Foreman in a bout staged in Zaire. Ali fought Frazier twice more, once in 1974 and again in 1975. Ali won both matches and secured his title. Taking time to reflect on the tumult of his fifteen-year boxing career, Ali co-wrote his autobiography--characteristically titled The Greatest--My Own Story--in 1975. In 1982 Dr. Dennis Cope, director of the Medical Ambulatory Care Center at the University of California, Los Angeles, began treating Ali for Parkinson's syndrome; Cope and colleague Dr. Stanley Fahn later theorized in the Chicago Tribune that Ali was suffering, more precisely, from Pugilistic Parkinsonism, brought on by repetitive trauma to the head--and that only an autopsy could confirm their suspicions. After losing a 1980 title bout to Larry Holmes, Ali had exhibited sluggishness and was misdiagnosed as having a thyroid condition; he was given a thyroid hormone. When Dr. Cope made the connection between Ali's decreasing motor skills and Parkinson's disease, he prescribed Sinemet (L-dopa). Ali was shortly restored to his previous level of energy and awareness; as long as he took his medication regularly, he was able to keep the disease in check. In 1988 Ali told New York Times Magazine contributor Peter Tauber: I've got Parkinson's syndrome. I'm in no pain.... If I was in perfect health--if I had won my last two fights--if I had no problem, people would be afraid of me. Now they feel sorry for me. They thought I was Superman. Now they can say 'He's human, like us. He has problems.' In 1984 another of Ali's medical confidantes, Dr. Martin D. Ecker, ventured in the Boston Globe that Ali should have quit boxing long before he finally did--for the second and final time--in 1981 after losing to Trevor Berbick. His bout with Berbick was his 61st and final fight. By then Ali had been showing signs of neurological damage for over a year. Ali's former doctor, Dr. Ferdie Pacheco, told the fighter to quit in 1977 when he first saw signs of Ali's reflexes slowing down. Seven years later, Pacheco, a consultant and boxing commentator for NBC-TV, explained to Betsy Lehman in the Boston Globe why he feels Ali didn't quit boxing in 1977: The most virulent infection in the human race is the standing ovation. Once you've seen that, you can't get off the stage. Once you feel that recognition ... the roar of 50,000 people, you just don't want to give it up. When Ali initially surrendered his title in 1979, he was paid $250,000 to quit, but he eventually returned to his sport, perhaps as Pacheco suggested, because the recognition had become habit-forming. Toward the end of Ali's boxing career, and afterward, his ambitions took a decided turn toward statesmanship. In 1980 he cast his lot with the Democratic Party, supporting then-Presidential candidate Jimmy Carter. In August of that year, while in intense training for the Holmes fight, he found time to work the floor of the Democratic National Convention in New York City. He also functioned as something of a diplomat in February of 1985 when he attempted to secure the release of four kidnapped Americans in Lebanon; unfortunately, he and his three advisers were not successful. During his career in the ring Ali made more than $50 million, two thirds of wwent to managerial expenses and taxes. He said to New York Times Magazine contributor Tauber in 1988, I never talk about boxing. It just served its purpose. I was only about 11 or 12 years old when I said 'I'm gonna get famous so I can help my people.' Indicating his continuing desire to help people, in 1990 Ali visited Our Children's Foundation, Inc., on Manhattan's 125th Street. According to Bill Gallo in the New York Daily News, he addressed the children there, saying, The sun has a purpose. The moon has a purpose. The snow has a purpose. Cows have a purpose. You were born for a purpose. You have to find your purpose. Go to school. Learn to read and write.... What is your purpose, your occupation? Find your purpose.... What do you have to find? Purpose!, they shouted gleefully in unison. True to form, one of Ali's favored inscriptions when signing autographs is Love is the net where hearts are caught like fish. Although Parkinson's syndrome has slowed Ali down, he still remain active--raising money for the Muhammad Ali Foundation and frequently appearing at sports tributes and fund-raisers. Muhammad's wife Lonnie believes Muhammad knows he has this illness for a reason. It's not by chance. Parkinson's disease has made him a more spiritual person. Muhammad believes God gave it to him to bring him to another level, to create another destiny. she stated in People. During the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, 3.5 billion people watched on television as three-time heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali slowly ascended the stadium steps with trembling hands to ignite the Olympic Flame. Everyone was deeply touched, however, No one was more moved than Ali himself. He kept turning it [the torch] in his hands and looking at it. He knows now that people won't slight his message because of his impairment. said his wife Lonnie in People. Muhammad has been blessed to meet with important dignitaries, including with President Clinton, Queen Elizabeth II, Nelson Mandela, and Pope John Paul II. His travels are his main source of income--charging as much as $200,000 for appearances. He usually travels 275 days out of the year. Although he enjoys his missionary work and public appearances, Ali's greatest pleasure is when he is at home in Berrien Springs, Michigan with his family--wife Yolanda and his adopted son Asaad Amin. In Berrien Springs, he lives a modest life in a house at the end of the road on an old farm. He has a pool and a pond and a security gate with an intercom. According to Kim Forburger, Ali's assistant, He's the only man I know where the kids come to the gate and say 'Can Muhammad come out and play?' When asked if he has any regrets, Ali responds, My children, I never got to raise them because I was always boxing and because of divorce, he said in People. When asked whether he is sorry he ever got into the ring, he responded, If I wasn't a boxer, I wouldn't be famous. If I wasn't famous, I wouldn't be able to do what I'm doing now. 这篇短点: Muhammad Ali Boxer, born in Louisville, Kentucky, USA. As an amateur boxer (1954–60), winning 100 of 108 matches, he became the 1960 Olympic light-heavyweight champion. Financed by a group of Louisville businessmen, he turned professional, and by 1963 had won his first 19 fights. He won the world heavyweight title in 1964, defeating the purportedly invincible Sonny Liston when he retired at the end of the sixth round. At that time he joined the Black Muslims and adopted the name Muhammad Ali. After defending the championship nine times within two years, in 1967 he refused to be drafted into the army on religious grounds, and was stripped of his title and barred from the ring. His action earned him both respect and anger from different quarters, but he did not box for three-and-a-half years; he took his case to the Supreme Court and had his boxing licence restored in 1970. In 1971 he was beaten by Joe Frazier, but beat him in 1974 in Zaire, and went on to meet George Foreman later that year, knocking him out in eight rounds to regain his title. He was beaten by Leon Spinks in a split decision (Feb 1978), but regained the title the same year - the first man to win the world heavyweight title three times. Famous for his flamboyant manner, his boasting predictions of which round he would defeat his opponent, and his doggerel verse (‘float like a butterfly, sting like a bee’), he was also recognized as one of the all-time great boxers with his quick jab and footwork. His slogan ‘I am the greatest’ became a catch phrase. He compiled a career record of 56 wins, five losses, with 37 knockouts, before retiring in 1981. During the 1960s and 1970s he was arguably the best-known individual in the entire world due not only to his controversial career but also to his travels and deliberate reaching out to the Third World. Ali was President Carter's special envoy to Africa in 1980 (attempting to persuade nations to boycott the Olympics). He has starred in two films, The Greatest (1976) and Freedom Road (1978), and an Oscar-winning documentary film, When We Were Kings, recounting the 1974 Ali v. Foreman fight, appeared in 1996. Ali retired in 1981, and during that decade it was revealed that he was suffering from a form of Parkinson's disease. He was an almost universal choice as the 20th-century's most important sportsman, and at the end of 1999 was voted BBC Sports Personality of the Century. In 2005 he attended the opening of the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, KY, and also that year was honoured with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
