"Muhammad Ali: Remembering A Legend"
The three-time heavyweight champion and worldwide celebrity died Friday night after a 32-year battle with Parkinson's disease. He was 74. He had been hospitalized at a Phoenix-area hospital this week with a respiratory problem.
Carter Evans will be in Phoenix, Jericka Duncan in Ali's hometown of Louisville, Kentucky, and Dr. Jon LaPook will report on the connection between boxing and Ali's Parkinson's disease.
In the boxing ring, Ali captivated the sports world by beating the biggest names of his era in some of the largest worldwide spectacles ever.
Outside the ring, he was outspoken about civil rights and the Vietnam War, which earned him as many fans as detractors. He transformed the sport of boxing, first as an Olympic gold medalist then as a pro, and in the process changed the world's view of boxers in and out of the ring. He was a true global superstar and celebrity royalty, who continued to wow audiences in recent years simply by walking into a room.
