THIS DAY IN HISTORY FEB. 25

      On February 25, 1964 Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali) became world heavyweight boxing champion for the first time by knocking out Sonny Liston in Miami Beach.  Ali was once quoted as saying, "I am the greatest. I said that before I even knew I was".  A legendary fighter, but one not particularly known for his modesty.
