Boxing promoter Bob Arum in his home pointing out photos of former boxer Muhammad Ali2. Close of a photo of Ali with Arum's children3. Framed program from Ali's bout with George Chuvalo in Toronto on 29 March 19664. SOUNDBITE (English) Bob Arum, boxing promoter:\"When I first started promoting Ali, I had no experience in promotion and no experience in the boxing business. And some of the ideas that we used in these promotions were outrageous, they were done for just attention, and people would come up to me and tell me what a brilliant promoter I was, 'What a fantastic idea'. And I would look at them and I said (that) I was a promoter, I was behind the scenes. Ali was the one that had all these ideas. Ali was the greatest boxing promoter in history. Anything that I learned, anything that I do today, was based on what I was taught by Muhammad Ali, because in those days with Ali he was the promoter and I was the technician behind the scenes.\"5. Photo of Ali and Arum6. SOUNDBITE (English) Bob Arum, boxing promoter:\"And people realized, both in the United States and particularly abroad, that this man was something special - that what he was preaching, what he was talking about, was good and it wasn't bad, that African Americans deserve the type of treatment that everybody else received. And I believe, and many people like me believe, that if there hadn't have been a Muhammad Ali, there would never have been a (US) President (Barack) Obama. I am absolutely convinced of that. Ali had an impact on our society, on the way we think about things, at least the way most of us think about things or many of us think about things, or what now is accepted to think about, that really no other person achieved.\"7. Arum pointing to photo of himself with Ali, Oscar De La Hoya, Tommy Hearns, Tony Danza, Marvin Hagler and \"Sugar\" Ray Leonard 8. SOUNDBITE (English) Bob Arum, boxing promoter:\"And boxing is now booming in China, and that, really, the breakthrough came from Ali going over there and showing what a great personality he was. After 20-plus years where boxing is prohibited, both on the pro and amateur level, in a country like China, and finally to make a comeback, and now kids all over China are going into boxing, that's a big accomplishment.\"9. Photos of Ali on Arum's wall 10. Book with photo of Ali11. SOUNDBITE (English) Bob Arum, boxing promoter:\"He will be in history as one of the major people of our time. History books will include Ali. They'll talk more about his message, in my opinion, than they will about his athletic career. And his legacy will be what he preached; what he wanted the world to be, and how somebody who is a pariah in their own country can demonstrate because of his suffering - lacking the ability to make a livelihood for three and a half years - could go through all of that and not be bitter, to continue his career, continue preaching to the people, and to send out this very, very important message. It's a story that will be told time and time again after we're all gone, generations to come. Muhammad Ali's story is truly, truly inspirational.\"12.
