    Hello! I’m Gail Nobles & you’re listening to Times Rippley.

    “I done something new for this fight. I done wrestled an alligator. ~ Muhammad Ali

    Muhammad Ali was more than a great champion in boxing. He was also a poet. “I done wrestled with an alligator,” he would say. He took his poetry to the boxing world. While talking about Tarzan, his imagination made you think he was boxing in the jungle.

    “ I had to beat Tarzan’s behind first for claiming to be the king of the jungle.” ~ Muhammad Ali

    Muhammad Ali took you beyond the boxing ring and painted pictures in your mind. He made the greatest speech back in the 70s. It's nice to go back in time to see the waves of Rippley. Listening to the words of Muhammad Ali’s adventure is like a mirage. You can see the appearance of water, Ali, and the alligator.

    Did you know that Muhammad Ali fought an alligator in a Saturday morning animated series? The series was broadcasted on NBC in the fall of 1977. Ali’s first adventure was The Great Alligator. The Saturday morning cartoon was titled: The Adventures of Muhammad Ali.

    Well, I hope you've enjoyed the first Times Rippley’s podcast. Tune in next time for more.
