Legenda tinju dunia, Muhammad Ali meninggal dunia

Merdeka.com - Jawara tinju kelas berat dunia, Muhammad Ali meninggal dunia. Ayah petinju wanita Laila ini meninggal akibat penyakit Parkinson yang dialaminya.

Kabar meninggalnya Ali mengejutkan dunia tinju. Empat dari enam anaknya langsung terbang ke sebuah rumah sakit di Phoenix, Amerika Serikat untuk menemaninya sampai menghembuskan napas terakhirnya.

Seorang sumber menyebutkan, Ali sempat mengalami masalah pernapasan akibat kombinasi penyakit Parkinson yang dideritanya sejak 1980-an. Dokter pun sudah angkat tangan.

"Seperti di atas ring, Ali adalah petarung di bangsal. Tim dokter sudah berusaha membuatnya bernapas kembali tapi gagal akibat parkinson," ujar sumber tersebut.

Belum ada penjelasan resmi dari keluarga Ali perihal kepergian sang legenda. Namun, Jumat (3/6) kemarin juru bicara keluarga sempat menyatakan Ali dalam keadaan sehat.




Muhammad Ali dies at age 74

Boxing Muhammad Ali died Friday night at age 74, according to NBC reports.

A daughter of boxing legend Muhammad Ali said Friday that her "number one priority is her father's well-being" after he was hospitalized in Phoenix for what his family said was a respiratory issue.

Laila Ali "truly appreciates the outpouring of love for her family, as she spends quality time with her dad," a statement issued by her business manager said.

The daughter's statement came on a night that Reuters, citing a source close to the family, reported that Muhammad Ali, 74, is close to death. He was hospitalized on Thursday.

The boxing legend, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1984, was hospitalized in January 2015 with a urinary tract infection. He was hospitalized in December 2014 with pneumonia.

Former six-time world champion Sugar Ray Leonard tweeted: "Prayers & blessings to my idol, my friend, & without question, the Greatest of All Time @MuhammadAli ! #GOAT

Actor Liev Schreiber, the voice of many documentaries including "Ali-Frazier I: One Nation... Divisible" wrote online, "Thinking about the greatest tonight(.) Hoping he is on the mend and surrounded by loved ones #MuhammadAli @MuhammadAli."

In recent years, Ali had largely stayed out of the public spotlight. He once was known not only for his athletic prowess as a three-time heavyweight champion but also for his social activism.

Ali was born in Louisville, Kentucky, as Cassius Clay in January 1942. He began boxing as an amateur when he was 12 years old and in 1964 became heavyweight champion with a knockout of Sonny Liston. That year he joined the Nation of Islam and changed his name.

Ali's sparkling career was interrupted for 3½ years in the 1960s when he refused induction into the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War and was convicted of draft evasion. The Supreme Court overturned the conviction.

He went on to win the heavyweight title twice more before retiring for good in 1981.
