Epic Team USA Muhammad Ali Tribute Video Is Brilliant

Steve Porter works his magic once again to deliver an amazing tribute video dedicated to one of the greatest boxers of all time, Muhammad Ali. 

We send a tip of the hat to BroBible, who had this posted. 

The actual post is taken from Team USA's YouTube account and it seems it was made for the Benefit Gala that took place right before the Opening Ceremony.

Watch this exclusive tribute by Steve Porter for Muhammad Ali - the special guest of Team USA's 2012 Benefit Gala hosted at USA House the night before the London 2012 Opening Ceremony.

Ali has been an unexpected treat at the London Games. This video will carry us all through the day with brilliant moments from a controversial and prolific career. 

The legendary boxer was also present at the actual Opening Ceremony to help bring in the Olympic flag. Besides being a heavyweight champion, Ali won gold at the 1960 Rome Games. 

Then, there was the magical moment of him lighting the Olympic torch back at the 1996 Atlanta Games that is etched into the memory of all who were fortunate enough to take it in. 

The above video does the legend justice with invoking passion and emotion from just a few short clips. 

I will go so far as to guarantee you replay it at least once. I know I couldn't help taking it all in a few times before I was able to move on.
