Muhammad Ali's Grandkids: One Wants to Be Heavyweight Champ, One Runs 4.38 40

Muhammad Ali broke down barriers and "...shook up the world." He was "The People's Champion" and "The Greatest."

We are equally proud of both boys. It's always surprising when you witness real athletic talent at such young ages. It's been a thrill to watch. We're happy both boys are enjoying their respective sports and want them to stay focused and healthy. However, they know, it's their excellence in academics that we want maintained above all else.                      —Muhammad and Lonnie Ali
