Give credit to Muhammad Ali, the man in the ring
Muhammad Ali stands over fallen challenger Sonny Liston. Photo: AP As a timid child of the '90s, scared of fighting, I had a framed poster of Muhammad Ali on my wall. It was a print of the infamous photo from '65 in which Ali looms over a felled Sonny Liston, flexing an arm that was so full of life and fury that it seemed to reach through time and nudge me in the guts.Ali existed for my generation as a mystic. This was partly because we never saw him fight in..>> view originalNRL season 2016: Fears for spectator safety almost derailed Roosters v Tigers

Adelaide’s 6.5 opening marked the Crows’ best start to a game against the Saints since the 6.2 scored in round 4, 2004 at Football Park. And Gary Ayres’ team lost that day by 15 points..>> view originalPower flick the switch to torch Magpies
