Ali’s career as a boxer 
was filled with notable achievements and recognitions. He won the Olympic gold medal in the light heavyweight division at the 1960 Rome Olympics and went on to become the world heavyweight champion at the age of 22, defeating Sonny Liston in a stunning upset. Throughout his career, Ali held the heavyweight title three times and had epic rivalries with boxers such as Joe Frazier and George Foreman. His fights, including the “Fight of the Century” against Frazier and the “Rumble in the Jungle” against Foreman, are still widely regarded as some of the greatest in boxing history.
