  • Muhammad Ali singing- Stand by me

    Not sure if I should post this here but I really like this and had no idea the man made a few songs. Apparently his cover of Stand by Me was ranked 102 on the charts back in the mid 60s. I hope you like it.

    One of Ali's closest friends was gospel to soul singer Sam Cooke back then. I'll guess this had something to do with Sam and Ali clowning in a studio!
    You can hear really good rhythm but I'm not sure what scale he was on a few times hahaha!!! I think he and Bodine could write some pretty good lyrics!

      He butchered a great song somewhat but to be fair he is better than Tyson Fury.

          They should make an album of all the greatest boxers songs. A lot of boxers did songs and they weren't very good but if they made an CD I would get it just to have it.

          Ali
          Roy Jones
          Pacquiao
          Joe Frazier
          Larry Holmes

          these are the only fighters I heard songs from but I imagine there were more.

            I also heard some from Ernie Terrell who had a pretty good voice. He even taunted Ali through musical means lol.

                Greedy ass Larry Holmes would want all the proceeds to go to himself.

                    lol - I have Larry Holmes' page on my facebook and everyday that peanut headed sono***un is always trying to sell something. Most recently it was seats to a venue (or his house, who knows) to watch the Mayweather fight. Ten bucks a head.

                    Used to post at his forum when it was free. Yeah, back when it was free.

                    There is a reason he owns Easton, PA.
