Ali ex-wife: ‘I’ll take her to Dubai to kick Laila’s a** … She’s, my hero.’

According to NJ.com Muhammad Ali’s ex-wife, Khalilah has some not-so-nice words for Ali’s daughter, retired women’s boxing legend, Laila.

You would think that Khalilah Ali would be rooting for Laila, who is 47, if she were to come back to the ring to fight the new undisputed women’s heavyweight champion, 29-year old Claressa Shields.

According to a video posted on FightHype.com, she does not.

In the video Khalilah Ali said, “I’m Khalilah Ali. I’m Muhammad Ali’s wife,” she told Shields’ rep before meeting the boxing multiple world champion and mixed martial artist that day.
