Former world heavyweight boxing champion Muhammad Ali is gravely ill and near death, according to multiple published reports. The news comes from Ali's brother, Rahman Ali.

Born Cassius Clay, the 71-year-old Muhammad Ali can no loner speak according to his brother and "could die within days," he told The (London) Sun. "“My brother can’t speak—he doesn’t recognize me. He’s in a bad way. He’s very sick.

Good fight, Champ.

Damn. He's the greatest.

The greatest indeed. I still say that if he fought Tyson in his prime, Tyson would of won.

Both healthy and in their prime?

I woulda paid to see that!

Both healthy and in their prime. As would I!

Different eras. Unfair to compare.

I'd still like to see Cassius vs Vietnam. Sad to see him go, and I know he's done a lot of good since then, but he might have never been the Ali we knew if he'd abided by the same laws as the other young men of his time.

report not true

Shoot, if we're going to play the boxer era game I got money that Jack Johnson takes em all!

Since most don't know it, here's the full quote that people love to see:

Float like a butterfly,
Sting like a bee.
Your hands can't hit,
What your eyes can't see.
