Summary of Muhammad Ali & Richard Durham's The Greatest

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 When I came home from Rome, I wanted to be managed by millionaire William Reynolds. In fact, when I returned, I found that Reynolds had been praised across America for what he was about to do for me.

#2 I had been sent to meet with Billy Reynolds, a millionaire fighter who wanted to become my manager. I had never been able to afford the proper boxing equipment or training, but I was finally going to get a manager who could help me with that.

#3 I was eventually hired by Reynolds, and while I was sweeping the back porch one day, I heard someone proclaim that I was the next Olympic champ.

#4 I was treated like an animal worth feeding and investing in. I was in better condition than most athletes, but I still had to go on with the grind of getting up at five every morning, the roadwork around Chickasaw Park, the one-hour bus ride to the suburbs, and the rush to the gym to train for two hours.
