00:30The Great or The Greatest is the title given to the person who is the best in any field.
00:38We saw in yesterday's program that the world is calling Alexander the Great because of his dream.
00:48Today, we would like to meet a warrior who achieved this title in the field of sports.
00:53The only warrior who got the title of The Greatest in the field of sports is Muhammad Ali, the last king of the world of martial arts.
01:01Ali was born in a Negro family on January 17, 1942.
01:09When he was born, his nickname was Cassius Clay.
01:13From a young age, he was a body builder.
01:17At that age, he had a dream of becoming a famous martial artist.
01:23Then, he joined the Black Muslim League and changed his name to Muhammad Ali, who defeated Islam.
01:31At the age of 18, Ali became a world martial artist.
01:36He won a gold medal in the 1960 Olympic Games held in Rome.
01:42Even then, the sports world did not recognize him.
01:47Exactly 40 years ago, on February 25, 1965, a tiger named Muhammad Ali rose up and started a new civilization in the world of martial arts.
02:03In that year, today, Muhammad Ali defeated the world warrior Sonny Liston and won the first world heavyweight martial arts title.
02:12The sports world saw that a great warrior was born in the world of martial arts.
02:18From 1964 to 1967, Ali was recognized as a world heavyweight martial artist.
02:26After that, his title was revoked by the American army because it did not understand compulsory service.
02:33To win that title again, he fought with Joe Frazier, but failed.
02:39Ali, who realized that victory and defeat would change in sports, did not give up and undertook tough training.
02:46In 1974, he fought with Joe Frazier again, defeated him and won the world title again.
02:55Then, Muhammad Ali, who lost to Leon Sphinx, defeated the same Sphinx in 1978 and won the world title for the third time.
03:07In the history of world martial arts, the first warrior Ali, who defeated his opponents and won the title three times, can be specified.
03:16After that, he was awarded the title of The Greatest.
03:21Ali has participated in 61 martial arts competitions.
03:24He won 56 of them and lost 5 to 5.
03:29It can be specified that he won 37 times in knockout.
03:34Muhammad Ali lost to Larry Holmes in the fourth attempt.
03:40The age is also a reason for that failure.
03:43But the fame and fame he had already gained did not change due to this failure.
03:48Muhammad Ali has a large share in the world's popularity of boxing.
03:53Following him, his daughter Laila Ali is now involved in women's boxing.
03:59The film The Greatest, featuring Muhammad Ali, was also released.
04:04It is true that Muhammad Ali, who defeated many with his strength, was defeated by Parkinson's disease.
04:11Doctors say that the disease was caused by the blows he received on his head during the fights.
04:19However, the world of sports suggests that the fame and fame he brought to the world of boxing may take a long time to catch up with someone else.
04:29There is definitely an important role for Muhammad Ali in many of the reasons why black people walk with their shoulders raised.
04:36When he talks about his victory, he says this.
04:40Warriors are not just formed in physical training.
04:43They must have a dream, a goal, and a desire in their hearts.
04:49Their talent is important, and their courage is also important.
04:53But courage is more important than talent.
04:56How true!
04:58Do you have a dream, a goal, and a desire in your heart?
05:03Talent is not important.
05:05Do you have courage?
05:07Therefore, even if it takes a short time, like Muhammad Ali, that sky will be yours.
05:20The sky will be yours.
