It's hard not to smile, and even chuckle, when touring the Ali Center. It's a grand celebration of his life: from humble beginnings in Louisville to becoming The Greatest and everything in between.

The museum captures the inspiration derived from the story of Muhammad Ali’s incredible life. See more great accomplishments made by African Americans over the years: http://bet.us/BHM

He was the champ back in the day and he got good history and good stories and he was a good boxer and he was a good person as well and he made it in the hall of fame and he had his own recognizance!!!

Marie La Rue

Honors Ali’s legacy explaining complex socio-political context of his lifetime. Sometimes hard to follow if unfamiliar with the era. Immersive boxing section. Humanitarian exhibits a nice complement.

Marq Johnson

Awesome exhibits ! More than just boxing. Come learn about a great humanitarian and learn some US history. Plan for about 2-3 hrs.

John Broks

Lots of information but not presented well . Orientation video doesn’t do him justice. Best part is seeing history of his fights clip in the ring

Habeebah Grimes

An amazing facility with a focus on the life and legacy of the the GOAT , the humanitarian and global citizen, Muhammad Ali!

Great overview of Ali's career, nicely laid out and informative for those of us who weren't alive during his heyday.

The special exhibition "Give peace a chance" gives an insider view to the Montreal bed-in staged by John and Yoko. It was a worthwhile visit.

I found the #AliCenter inspiring. I am not enamored by pro athletes, however Mr. Ali's story of overcoming oppression, facing it head on will be told years beyond our imagination.
