Tributes and praise for Muhammad Ali poured in from around world after the legendary figure died at age 74 on Friday.
From Janet Evans, who passed the Olympic Flame to Ali to conclude the 1996 Atlanta Olympic torch relay:
“Muhammad Ali was truly the greatest — an athlete who transcended sports to become a global icon. He inspired me, and millions of others around the world, to be the best version of ourselves. Passing the Olympic torch to Muhammad to light the cauldron at the Atlanta Games in 1996 was the defining moment of my career, and a memory I will treasure forever, as much as any of the medals I won.
