The Champ returning to Kentucky

By Associated Press in Louisville, US | China Daily | Updated: 2016-06-11 07:47

Muhammad Ali will return to his old Kentucky neighborhood one last time.

The boxing icon's body will ride in a procession spanning events in his life - from his boyhood home where he shadowboxed and dreamed of greatness, to the boulevard that bears his name, and the museum that stands as a lasting tribute to his triumphs in the ring and his humanitarian causes outside of it.

Louisville is accustomed to being in the limelight in May when the Kentucky Derby captures the world's attention. But the send-off for the three-time heavyweight champion and global advocate for social justice will be one of the city's most historic events.
