#Hilo 🧵🥊 Hace 54 años, Muhammad Ali, leyenda mundial del boxeo, tomó una decisión que le hizo perder su título deportivo a la vez de ganar el repudio de muchos; se negó a ser reclutado por el ejército de EE.UU., y acá te contamos lo sucedido.
Cassius Marcellus Clay nació el 17 enero de 1942 en Louisville, Kentucky. Desde muy temprana edad dio muestras de su capacidad atlética, específicamente el ámbito del pugilismo.
Durante los Juegos Olímpicos de Roma, en 1960, Clay dio muestra de su muy especial modo de pelear, una gran velocidad y golpes certeros. ‘Floto como una mariposa y pico como una abeja’, fue el lema que patentó Clay para explicar su boxeo.

Brady is the best football player in the modern Era if you control for racism, coaching and division competition. Doesn't mean he's not the greatest but context matters
The #GOAT conversation depends on how you think of individual vs team sports. Football is HARD - a long career of success is almost impossible. But Basketball requires you play offense AND defense (unless you're Harden) so I'd put LeBron, Russell, Jordan ahead of #Brady
Easily 3 of #Brady #SuperBowl wins were
defense #seahawks
Special Teams #Rams 2000
Defense #Rams 2018

LeBron, Jordan, Russell had to be on the court the whole time. Again doesn't take anything AWAY from #Brady but a "Team sport" hits different when you have to defend too

“I ain’t draft dodging. I ain’t burning no flag. I ain’t running to Canada. I’m staying right here. You want to send me to jail? Fine, you go right ahead. I’ve been in jail for 400 years. I could be there for 4 or 5 more, but I ain’t going no 10,000 miles to help murder and .....
kill other poor people. If I want to die, I’ll die right here, right now, fightin’ you, if I want to die. You my enemy, not no Chinese, no Vietcong, no Japanese. You my opposer when I want freedom. You my opposer when I want justice. You my opposer when I want equality.
Want me to go somewhere and fight for you? You won’t even stand up for me right here in America, for my rights and my religious beliefs. You won’t even stand up for my right here at home. “ - Muhammad Ali | #MuhammadAli
