Muhammad Ali's body arrives in Louisville
Leaving his fans teary eyed, boxing legend Muhammad Ali, who was suffering from respiratory illness for sometime now, breathed his last on Friday in Arizona.
He was 74.
Ali, who had charmed his fans for generations with his powerful performance in the ring, will be laid to rest on Friday, reports said.
Louisville mayor Greg Fischer told Sky News he expects an "outpouring of love" for the three-time world heavyweight champion.
"When a global icon is from your own home city, everybody has got a story, everybody has been touched by him - one way or multiple ways," he told Sky News.
