Tarick with Muhammed Ali(1992)
Muhammed Ali is also my hero...more for what he did outside the ring than for what he did inside the ring. He was not only one of the greatest fighters of all time, but also one of the greatest humanatarians ever....Lance Armstrong, for coming back from so much adversity...Dan Marino, simply the greatest quarterback to ever play the game...
