The Paley Center for Media recently held its latest PaleyImpact program, “Still the Greatest: Muhammad Ali’s Triumphant Legacy.” The event explored how Muhammad’s iconic image has been made relevant for a younger generation, especially with the recent release of Undisputed, the first video game featuring boxing in ten years, while also spotlighting his artistry. The panelists also discussed why Muhammad Ali is considered the “Greatest of All Time,” and still inspires the world eight years after his death.
Former World Champ in Four Weight Classes, Roy Jones, Jr., spoke with us about what was it about Muhammad Ali that inspired him to go into boxing. He also mentors kids, and we got to talk about his work in that area. After the panel, fans had the opportunity to play against Jones in the game, Undisputed, which had incredible likenesses to Jones and Ali.
