Well, I don't really know much about sports. I'm not a very sporty person or very interested in sports. However, not so long ago I saw a documentary about a famous boxer called Muhammed Ali. He was born in 1942, and I think he died a few years ago. Anyway, he became a really famous boxer in the 1960s, and beat some of the very best boxers in the world. He was also a very good speaker, and a charismatic individual, so he also became an actor and featured in numerous films. In the early 1980s, however, he developed Parkinson's disease which many people thought had been triggered by his countless boxing injuries.
The documentary I saw traced his life from childhood to his death, and his story is an interesting one. He's an example of one of those people from a fairly modest background, who rose to fame through a combination of hard work and determination and a certain amount of chance and personality. In the mid 1960s he refused to enter into the US military to take part in the Vietnam War, as he had a moral objection to the war, and this annoyed the authorities somewhat, as it inspired many other fit and able men to also follow him and refuse to go to war as well! Anyway, I find these kind of documentaries very interesting, and a boxer, as far as I know, is regarded as an athlete, so… that's the story of the athlete that I know a little bit about.
