Thank you for getting up so early. Thank you. Thanks for having me on. The world mourns for your dad, as i know you and the family do more deeply. Help us appreciate him from your perspective. Well, i mean, theres nothing i can say that hasnt already been said. You know, my dad was not only the best fighter ever but also such a great man, and there will never be anyone else like him. And i think that anywhere you go in the world, people recognize him. Not only recognize him but love him because of the man that he is. Because he stood up for his beliefs. He fought for those who couldnt speak up for themselves. Hell truly be missed by all of us. Where do you think that confidence came from . I think thats something that just naturally comes from within, and then people who first of all, you have to have confidence and believe in yourself. Then you have to work hard to prepare. I always say my confidence comes from preparation. Its not something that you go around saying, oh, im going win, just because. You do the hard work when nobodys watching to make sure that you win. To back it up. One of the wonderful things i heard and read over the weekend was the idea that when it was time to go, his heart wouldnt stop beating. Yeah. Im not im not personally myself, im not comfortable talking about his last moments. What i will share is that we were all there, all of his kids had the opportunity to come and be at his side when he passed on. You know, so, im happy that we had the opportunity to be there with him. And to say that it do you think he was ready . They said, i know the people that loved him werent ready. Do you think that he was ready . He fought the battle of parkinsons, probably the fiercest opponent, for so long. Its hard to say whether or not somebodys ready. But i do know that, you know, i do understand the circle of life. At some point, we value to pass away. Obviously im sad. Im going to miss my father. But ive been sad for a long time because my fathers been struggling with parkinsons for a long time and hasnt been, you know, who himself for a long time. So im happy knowing that hes no longer struggling, and thats what gives me comfort. So again, you know, im sad that hes not here. Im sad that i cant hug and kiss him, and my daughter, sydney, who has a special relationship with him, doesnt quite understand yet that papaws gallone to heaven. Hes not coming back. Again, i feel like i have to be strong because for one, i know no other way. But i have children i have to teach. Its a part of life, and obviously were all going through a lot, and were all going to miss him very much. He did not was you to box, laila ali. He was very concerned. What was his concern, and how did you convince him . Well, obvious reasons. The same reasons i wouldnt want my kids to box. He tried to talk me out of it indirectly. But obviously i did what i wanted to do, and he knew i was going do what i wanted to do. And he had so much respect for the fact that i did what i believed in, just like he did. Im his youngest daughter. Im a girl. Youre pretty. You look just like him. Thank you. I guess he loved 240, too 21 knockouts. Can you do the ali shuffle, laila . No. I never i never even tried because i knew in the beginning of my career when people like if i start trying to be like my dad now, ill never be able to stop. You know, i went about my own career in my own way. You know, i love my dad. I love him. But i love me, too. So i wanted to do my own thing. Thank you very much for joining us. We appreciate it.

Ive heard you say its hard to fight somebody that you admired and loved. Yeah. It was like i was mugged in the jungle. Went there with two title belts. I came home with none. Muhammad ali was as smart as charlie rose and as pretty as gayle king. You charmer, you. What was it like to be hit by muhammad ali . I heard he said, george, is that all you got . What was it like to get a punch from muhammad ali . What did that do to you . It was strange. I thought id knock him out in one or two rounds, but about the third round, i hit him. He fell on me, i thought thats it. He started screaming, thats all you got, george . Show me something i knew then i was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Did the trash talk get to you . What was the line you said, norah . He told david frost, if you think the world was surprised when nixon resigned, wait until i whip foremans behind. Did that trash talk get to you . You know what, he could have continued with the trash talk if he hadnt hit me with that straight right hand. That did it. Yeah. On the canvas, the most embarrassed the most embarrassing moment of my life. They say it was the ropeadope that did it. That he avoided you by the ropeadope, and tired you out. Once you started to fight, you had nothing. Yeah. I thought like i said, i went out for the first and second tround clean it out and get it over quick. I didnt have any idea that that fight was going to continue round after round after round. You know how the ladies walk around with the ring card . I was thinking, please dont come back in here. Stay out. It was a terrible day for me. George, i hate to be laughing at you, but youre hilarious. You are. After that fight, you sort of gave up boxing. You walked away. Were became a preacher. Did it affect you that much . Yeah yeah. In 77 i walked away and became an evangelist, which i am. I moonlight as a boxer and grill salesman. In reality, i walked away from it. You end up with ten kids, you got to box. Let me say let me say that the George Foreman grill is a very fine grill indeed. Yes. You have said no one loved living more than him. What are some of your favorite memories of him . Oh, he was so good looking. Every morning he woke up didnt matter what situation he was in. He was going to try to find a way to be joking and laughing. Once he came up and said, george, one day youre going to have this when youre heavyweight champ of the world. Wait here. Came back in a couple of moments with a briefcase. I thought its 1,0 100,00. He opened it, it was an old telephone. Like a fool, i went out and bought one. It was pre cell phones. He loved life. He did. The more you watch and see his life, its amazing the things i learned. People describe him as not just a once in a lifetime athlete but once in a lifetime man. You agree, dont you . He was the greatest man i ever met. To say he was the greatest boxer is a putdown. He was bigger than boxing. He was bigger than anything. I mean, if you were a movie star and went to see muhammad ali, youd become a better movie star. A better lawyer. A better doctor. He was truly the greatest. But take us to the ring at least once in terms of what his skills were. How fast was he . How hard did he punch . Youd describe him i got into the ring with him, he didnt have the best power, the best anything. But his presence. You got in the ring with him and knew this is something different. And you couldnt beat it. You may as well forget hitting him in his face. He was not going to let you do it. He said, i came in pretty, im going to leave pretty. The sad thing in it, he was. He was. He was pretty. He was. No one could deal with him. His greatest power was his presence. And i wish everyone would have gotten a chance to meet him just to know who im talking about. I know. How did you become friends with somebody who beat you up so badly . How did that happen . You beat me up like he did, id be your friend, too. George got jokes morning. Aint nothing like it. George came to play. You know, he once said he wishes everybody loved each other the way that they loved him. He had great compassion for children and for other human beings. I think thats what struck me a lot this weekend watching the stories about him over and over and over again. He made me feel so important. If you sit around him, you felt important. You really felt like you were something special. And hed sit there and make you think, wow, hes paying some attention to me. And he wouldnt yawn much. Hed just listen to you. He was so brash and arrogant. Very unusual for a black man at that time speaking his mind the way he did. What are your thoughts about that . You know, i didnt want to hear anymore of his conversation after africa. Thats all you got, george . Show me something. Im the greatest you dont have any business in the ring with me. I didnt care much about his conversation. All right. George, its great to have you. Really great. Thank you very much. We really appreciate it, George Foreman. Thank you.

Fears storms kicked up about yesterday after evening, winds toppled two between along 21st street in the Graduate Hospital area, spring thirds tree in upper darby. Fortunately no reports of serious injuries. Now, lets guess to katie for a look at the weather forecast. Thankfully the storms are nice memory as opposed to concern any more, jim. Watching that frontal boundary, storms pushed wall out to sea, still breezy throughout the course of the day yesterday. See how clinics are clearing out nicely on storm scan3, and again, little bit of breeze, humidity starting to drop off with time. I call it pretty nice day, 58 degrees in the sunshine, tomorrow, another front comes through, definitely, the lesser of two evil, when it comes to these past two systems here, but we are going to see temperatures drop off by mid week, meisha.

Thanks, meisha a next update 8 25, im jim donovan, make it a great day. Good morning, it is monday, june 6th, 2016. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Theres more real news ahead including the latest tributes to muhammad ali. Were going to ask james brown why so many looked up to ali and why his legend goes far beyond boxing. First, heres todays eye opener at 8 00. Muhammad ali, as you know, spread his message of perseverance, strength, and civil rights to millions. Help us appreciate him from your perspective. Well, i mean, theres nothing i can say that hasnt already been said. You know, my dad was not only the best fighter ever, but also such a great man. We could start feeling the effects of Tropical Storm colin within the next two to three hours. The concern will be flooding and the potential for isolated tornadoes. Theres six states that vote tomorrow. There are nearly 700 delegates up for grabs. Clinton only needs 26 of them. Government forces advanced to within two miles of the citys center, but theyve had to fight every inch of the way. Miss usas Parent Organization has suffered a number of controversies in the past year. But the applause for last nights winner may help shape up the competitions image. Lets start with the rumble in the jungle. Did it feel like it to you . It was like i was mugged in the jungle. I went there with two title belts. I came home with none. Muhammad ali was as smart as charlie rose and as pretty as gayle king. Oh. Smarter and prettier. Im charlie rose with gayle king and norah odonnell. Muhammad ali is home in louisville, kentucky, this morning as millions around the world remember his extraordinary life. A champion who transcended the sport of boxing died friday in arizona. He was 74 and had battled parkinsons disease for nearly half his life. Alis family will hold a private funeral on thursday and then a Public Service on friday. Muhammad ali burst on to the boxing world stage more than 50 years ago with an unorthodox style and a very sharp tongue. Let me see you close your mouth and keep it closed. Keep it closed. Im the greatest. Not going to lose. I never think about losing. Im fast. Im a better boxer. Im prettier. I can drown a drink of water and kill a dead tree. Wait until you see muhammad ali. Every time you open your mouth, you should be arrested for air pollution. The greatest of all that famous line started as a simple brag, but few people today dispute it. Ali won 56 fights. 37 by knockout. He was the firefighter win the heavyweight championship three times. He was more than just a brilliant boxer. Ali was also an entertainer, an activist, and a humanitarian. The challenger is jabbing all over body right hand. In 1964, few people gave muhammad ali much of a chance against heavyweight champion of the world sonny listen. That might be all, ladies and gentlemen. Reporter the 2yearold still 22yearold known as cassius clay pulled off an incredible upset winning the gold medal and becoming the world champion. Whos the greatest . You are a string of memorial possible bouts followed. The fight of the century at Madison Square garden against joe frazier. The rumble in the jungle where alis ropeadope style helped outlast George Foreman. Ali with the knockout and the thrilla in manila when he beat frazier by a technical knockout. Its all over. [ cheers ] when he fought joe frazier for the first time at Madison Square garden, each man got the unheard of sum of 2. 5 million. That was one of the things that opened the way for larger purses and larger salaries and n all sport. Reporter Thomas Howser wrote numerous books about ali. Ali was the first in a new wave of athletes who were both big and fast and coordinated. Reporter alis words could be just as brutal as his fists. He elevated trash talk to an art form. I had a dream when i got to africa, i had one hell of a rumble. I had to beat tarzans behind first for claiming to be the king of the jungle. Ali was rapping before people were rapping. A lot of the poems that he wrote, you could put to music today. First thing he taught me was float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. His hands cant hit what his eyes cant see. Rumble, young boy, rumble. Thats what ive always lived by. Today ali is a beloved icon. Its easy to forget he was a polarizing career for much of his career. As a member of the nation of islam, he famously changed his name from cassius clay. Muhammad ali. Muhammad means worthy of all praises. And ali means most high. He was a draft dodger and Conscientious Objector to the vietnam war. He was stripped of his title and banned from boxing for 3. 5 years. Lennox lewis was the last undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. I think of what he stood for. What he sacrificed. I think that makes him a special man just outside of the ring. Im the greatest. Im a poet. Im a movie star. Im an actor. Im a fighter. And most of all, im pretty. Reporter ali retired from boxing in 1981, having taken an estimated 29,000 punches to the head. Three years later, he was diagnosed with parkinsons disease. Over the next three decades, his strength and his ability to speak. Two of his greatest gifts were slow slowly disappearing. You look at queens, princes, queens, everyone knew muhammad ali around the world. Many of the biggest names in sports say there was no one bigger than ali. Michael jordan, wayne gretzky, tiger woods, and eric jeter all say he was the greatest. Their tributes illustrate how alis fame went far beyond boxing. Special correspondent james brown was also inspired by alis example. Good morning. Reporter looking at that, what a transcendent figure he was. And i know oftentimes people say there will never be another like him. This may well be true in the case of muhammad ali. You say that because . You know, he transcended sports. Look, as far as athletes are concerned, they have the highest regard for him because he was the best in his sport. But it transcended that because of the depth of convictions of the man. Even that brash marketing exterior, if you will, that came, as you well know, from the wrestler gorgeous george. He was a showman in that regard. Off camera, out of the spotlight, he was a quiet, pensive man. And as i listened to that array of sound bites and all he was about, he called himself a functional illiterate because of how poorly he did in school. Theyll have to redefine it because the guy was brilliant. One of the nicest tributes i heard over the weekend, somebody said he didnt set out to change the world. Its just that the world changed because he said and did what he thought was right. Its unusual for a black man to speak out at that time. He was 22. Brash, arrogant. Now the people that vilified end up thinking he was a hero. What deuce about that . What do you say about that . Right on point. I couldnt have said it any better. Thats why he became such a beloved figure. Early on he was reviled because of his stance about the vietnam war. It was the depth of his convictions. Thats why he was stripped of his title. Was not able to box for some three years. Alvin patrick, my producer, and i were talking about this. For five decades this guy was the bestknown fleet around the world. While athlete around the world. While Michael Jordan and others were pointed out. He flew to plays and was well known around the globe. He paid a big price for speaking out. He did. Thats why people like him and respect him. Even if they disagree with his position. He had the strength of conviction that it cost him at the height of his career. Boxing for three years, being stripped of i had title. But you have respect for somebody who will stand on their beliefs, gayle. He was as agile with his words as he was in the ring, j. B. I mean, that made him so likeable and that confidence which i think added to his appeal. Which is why i use the word brilliant to describe him, even though he called himself a functional iliteral. The guy was illiterate. The guy was masterful. I listen to the rap he did before rapping became popular. When he fought sonny listen, he was flatout scared, ali. Thats why he was hyper in the ring. They thought the guy had lost his mind. The same way as i listen to George Foreman talking to by the way, he did forget to talk about norahs beauty, as well. He complimented charlie and gayle, but hes got to throw norah in. He was always well prepared in the ring. What did he mean to you personally . The last time i saw him was eight years ago at fight night in arizona. He was always respectful of other people. But he had a regal air about himself, but he showed the greatest degree of respect for all others, as well. And i simply revered him because of who he was. J. B. , thank you. Especially good for us this morning and yesterday on sunday morning. Very eloquent. We thank you. Beautiful. Thank you very much. God bless you and gayle and norah.

More than double the number in 2005. At five, the ceo of general motors. Fourth, medical and gates, cochair of the bill and medical and gates foundation. Third, janet yellen. Hillary clinton is second. For the sixth year running, Angela Merkel is number one. And executive president of forbes media joins us. Good morning. I always look forward to this list. Its remarkable to see this. And Angela Merkel, shes not only the most powerful, but staying power. Staying power. Shes been number one for ten of 11 years on the list. Shes someone whos defied existential Political Economic crises, not just in germany but saving the eurozone and also dealing with huge issues such as the immigration crisis. She has staying power and resilience. Shes also Barack Obamas favorite head of state. Not surprising. I mean, shes a woman at the helm of the fourth largest economy. You cant dismiss the type of power and staying power that she has. Hillary clintons number two even though she doesnt hold office. She doesnt technically even have a job. But shes someone whose career is defined by historic milestones. First lady to run for office. First female senator of new york. Potentially the first woman to hold the highest office in the land. And you took the celebrity category off. What was the Decision Making for that . We wanted to look for women in more highpower rules. Six women are new, heads of state. Were seeing women ascend globally with nearly half the list from outside the u. S. Including a quarter from asia. Does that mean you dont think people like beyonce or taylor swift are powerful . For sure they are powerful, but they are women shaping culture. Thats not to say that that is not power. Its a different type of power. Were looking at more hard power, controlling nations, huge corporations, and finding them transforming the world we live . What about whos off the list . Ceo Elizabeth Holmes . She was on the list for the first year and what a duffs a year can make. We estimated her selfmade fortune last year, 4. 5 billion. This year at zero. Shes zero . Zero. At zero. Shes someone whos faced huge challenges, huge scrutiny, questioning the fundamentals of her company. She took a lot of investment, and shes someone whose future is very uncertain. Will she bounce back . We hope so, but time will tell. Power is fleeting. For sure. Power is fleeting. A little scary. Who was on the list that you think we should know about that surprised you . One woman whose name you may not know, the founder of lens technology. It makes the glass for smartphones and tablets. Her company ipo last year, worth an estimated 8. 4 billion. What we love about her story is she was from poor rural china and is an incredible, incredible success story. How oiled, children . 46 years old. Shes young. She speaks to a lot of ascend ants that were seeing in china. Outside of the u. S. , china has the most number of power women on the list. Children . I always wonder about how many women with children. The majority you know, can they do it install. And you can. And you can. The majority of the women on our list do have children. Theyre leading countries. Building multibillion dollar businesses, saving millions of lives around the world. And their power only increases year to year. Well, due to kudos to forbes for highlighting. A fun list and amazing women. Always good to see you. What taylor swift didnt make the forbes list, she tops it very top you could say with a pair of newlyweds. What did she do . Next, swifts wedding day surprise after a heartfelt plea.

Swift planned the surprise with the grooms sister who sent a letter to the star back in april. She wrote how their mother was dying, and that blank space was picked for a mother and son wedding dance at the hospital. Swift also gave the couple a handmade card that reads, she knitted this herself, embroidered it, so its going to be forever. A lyric. Im glad they picked it. The next line are s, always going to go down in flames. Not good at a wedding. Goose bumps. Special to them, so i get it. Just that taylor came is nice. Shes the best. We love taylor swift.

Will smith pays tribute to the champ. My conversation with the actor about his portrayal of the boxing legend. How smith says alis greatness reveals something that exists in all of us. Time to show some of this mornings headlines. New yorks daily news reports on chaos at a popup concert by kanye west. More than 4,000 fans mobbed the outside of a concert hall in new york city after midnight.

You know what i mean. I know. Dada and Sports Illustrated announces that muhammad ali will again grace its cover. This weeks issue will feature a shot of the champ in his prime. It will be his 40th si cover. It focused on his career for more than 50 years dating back to 1963. Only Michael Jordan with 50 covers has been featured more often. Cool. Surprising. Muhammad ali held the record for most heavyweight championship titles until Evander Holyfield took it away. Holyfield surpassed alis three titles in 2000 after a fight against john luis. He was inspired by ali as a child. Evander holyfield is with us from his home in ft. Lauderdale, florida. Got up bright and early. We appreciate it. Good to see you. So the story i hear about you is that a boxing coach said to you at 8 years old, you could be like muhammad ali. And you thought that was great. But you had to ask your mom first. True . Yes, i had to ask my mom because had to get the okay. My f my mom didnt say i could be it, i couldnt be it. What did it mean for you to be compared to ali at that age . What did you know about him at 8 . I knew he was a champion. And i wanted to be a champion. And everything in life, people told me i wasnt going to be anything because i was from the ghetto. They told me i wouldnt succeed. What was it about him that inspired you . Because he said he was the greatest. And it was amazing just the word greatest means that youre the best. And i wanted to be the best. And i thought to be like ali i could be the very best. Did he have the best skills or the biggest heart . Well, you know, now as an adult he had both. You know, he had skills, and he had heart. It took faith to succeed. You know, its interesting because everybody who knew muhammad ali said he had confidence in and out of the ring. Did you learn something about confidence watching him . Of course i did. I know practice makes you perfect and hard work and perseverance. Theres always going to be something that dont work out for you. You have to have the right attitude to overcome it. What did you admire most about him . That hes a man that followed up. If he said he could do something, he would do it. It wasnt just its easy to say but hard thing to make it happen. And ali was the one that when he said something, he backed it up. Some people look at ali with such awe and admiration and at the same time say, you know, thats what i dont like about boxing, what it might have done to him. I didnt hear the question people look at ali with such admiration. At the same time, they look at the parkinsons and its toll on him. They say thats the problem with boxing. Do you share that. Yeah. I would say thats you know, Howard Cosell had parkinsons, and he didnt fight. Theres a lot of bleep have parkinsons of people have parkinsons didnt get hit. You know that its not because of boxing. But, you know, thats a whole big point of have having thing he did things for parkinsons, for someone to find out what is the problem, how do you catch parkinsons. When you dont know and say because he got hit you know, theres a lot of people got hit and didnt have parkinsons. Did you ever get a chance to spend much time with him . Im curious if you have any personal memory and what you thought when you heard that he had passed away. Well, actually, you know, thats been a long time, you know, with ali after 84. Got an opportunity to years and years i went to his events all the time. He was a man with a lot of heart. A man that wanted to please everybody. It was a man that had given out and kept giving. So at some point in time, you know, its aspiring on everything. We all got to meet the maker. Yep. Did you think he was pretty . Well, you know, as a man, i dont usually call nobody pretty but a woman. But you know, as a man, you tend to be handsome. Leave it at that. Okay. Well said. Well said. Before you go, do you have a favorite ali quote . A lot of people have been quoting him. Do you have a favorite . You know, float like eye butterfly, sting like float like a better fly, sting like a bee. That was it for me. When youre floating, they cant catch you. All right. Thank you very much for taking the time. Thank you. Thank you. Will smith captured some of the champs magic in the 2001 movie ali. Hes going down in five. He talk a little more, i might drop him in four. Smith earned his first oscar nomination for that role. I spoke to him on my pbs Program Three month after ali was released. He shared the challenges and lessons from playing the legendary boxer. The one thing that i truly tried to communicate and the interpretation of ali is the complex simplicity of greatness. Yeah. And how greatness is not this wonderful esoteric, elusive godlike feature that only the special among us will ever taste. It exists within all of us. Sitting with nelson mandela, with ali, its very simple. This is what i believe, and im willing to die for it. Wow. Wow. Well said. Yes. I tribute on Smiths Facebook page has about 1. 25 million likes. Smith called ali my mentor and my friend. You changed my life. He changed a lot of peoples lives.

He says, i want you to make sure that you please send me my passionage. Baggage. To this day, nobody knows what is in that bag the gentleman George Washington actually sends back. He actually does send it back. But no one knows to this day whats in that baggage. I wont ruin my theory, i wont ruin chapter 85, but its dont ruin it. Yes, what you said is true. Its absolutely true. This is all real. I use it in the book, but then i show you my theory in chapter 85. There was a great line about what did benedict want ultimately. You said the same thing we all want. What is that . For someone to give a damn about us. Everyone thinks that Benedict Arnold is the bad guy. Sometimes hes just the complicated guy. How did he make that case . Did he be tray the country or not . Of course he betrayed the country. But you want to see Everything Black and white, youll see Benedict Arnold as the worst guy in the world. Hes a complicated guy. Like anyone whos good or bad, theres another part of the story. The interesting part to me is is Benedict Arnold really doing something bad. And theres a theory that maybe hes not the bad guy. That maybe, just maybe he was working for us the entire time. And on that very note, you in researching best transition ive seen. I know. Found an interesting story about a former dictator that was on, what, the u. S. Payroll, working for the cia . Im researching the book. I talked to a military Intelligence Officer who tells me that years ago there was a dictator who through one of his top lieutenants was working for us, a spy for the United States. And why was he doing it . For most logical reason of all money . No, for his family. For his family. What happened is the lieutenant had a sick child you have to live us on that its a cliffhanger. Tell you the name i cant tell you. Hes still alive. Eiffel teill tell you that. House of secrets goes on sale tomorrow. And years ago on face the nation, muhammad ali talked about the impact he wanted to have on the world. Well be right back. Why do people have eyebrows . I. Why do people put milk on cereal . Oh, are you reading why people put milk on cereal . Why does your tummy go grumbily, grumbily, grumbily . Why is it all mimics a stomach grumble no more questions for you ooph, that milk in your cereal was messing with you, wasnt it . Yeah, happens to more people than you think. Try lactaid, its real milk, without that annoying lactose. Good, right . Mmm, yeah. I got your back. Lactaid. Its the milk that doesnt mess with you. People know about you in every corner of the earth. What is it that you want to do after youve stopped fighting . Well, i figure that we only have so many hours a day to do whatever we have to do. Submarine years to live. So many years to live. In those years we sleep eight hours a day, we travel, we watch television. A mans 50 years old, hes lucky to say if hes had 20 years actually to live. I would like to do the best that i can for humanity. Im blessed by god to be recognized as the most famous face on the earth today. And i cant think of nothing no better than helping gods creatures, helping poverty, working for good causes where i can use my name to do so, to help this country and other countries where were having various problems, where my influence might help. That was muhammad ali on face the nation in 1976. Five years before his retirement and eight years before his parkinsons revelation. Ali spoke of his ambitions outside the ring. One of his friends said dont cry because hes gone. Smile because he was here. A remarkable man who gave up a lot, at the same time brought so many gifts. None more important than the idea of conviction and standing for what you believe in. That does it for us. See you tomorrow on cbs this at clorox 2 weve turned removing stains into a science.
