“Wonderful Role Models for Our Young People “: Fans Elated as American Sports Power Couple Win the the Muhammad Ali Sports Humanitarian Award

With great power comes great responsibility. Every sportsman can relate to this statement. Even though many have the notion that the only thing athletes do is perform well in their respective sports. But, in reality, that is not the case, as many athletes tend to use their grandeur and position to contribute to something nobler than their professional careers. Muhammad Ali has been an example of what an athlete can do to give back to society and the changes they can bring with their influence. Muhammad Ali’s reach goes way beyond his boxing ring appearances.

Ali was able to achieve a lot throughout his life. And his contribution to making a better society and giving back to the people who are less fortunate is commendable. Athletes who take it upon themselves to follow in the footsteps of the boxing legend and help society are awarded the Muhammad Ali Sports Humanitarian Award in appreciation of their important contributions. And, now, an American power couple is getting praise from the fans for getting the prestigious award.
