Oh dear, to all of us who remember Mr Ali in his prime, the grim reaper has taken his toll as old age has really kicked in; it's the bottom of his face that has sagged so sadly. Parkinsons is a dreadful disease isn't it? I'm told the mind remains as sharp as ever. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

I agree, JK - am I wrong to say he should not be paraded about in his current health state? Let us remember him as he was. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

I said that to consider disabled people as "athletes" was utterly absurd - which it is. Nothing more.

Why not check out the definition of athlete?

To say that people with physical problems cannot be athletes is so wrong - a very sad and ignorant view .....

Germany had a similar way of looking at 'imperfect people' in the 30's/40's.

The World said they were wrong.
