      Nope,sorry. Ali has been on the cover of sports illustrated more than any other athlete in history. He has appeared on the cover of time magazine more than once and is internationally known. Ali was not a media hype or darling like a Ray Leonard, or Oscar Delahoya who always spoke with well thought out, media friendly answers when in the public.Ali didn't say what he thought people wanted to hear(whether that's good or bad). He spoke his mind and said what he wanted to which made him controversial, hated, loved,and extremely popular and famous at the same time. He's an international figure. Delahoya will never match that. Leonard either.
