Sad news today, Bros, as boxing legend Muhammad Ali is reportedly not faring well in the hospital after being admitted for respiratory problems complicated by Parkinson’s disease. “Doctors are working to regulate his breathing but it is being hampered by his Parkinson’s” a source close to Ali stated to Mirror, “his children are all extremely concerned and dropped everything to be with him. They fear the worst.”
The children of the sporting icon have rushed to be at his bedside as doctors treating the former heavyweight champ have told them they fear he “is near the end”.
Already four of the 74-year-old’s nine children, including daughters Laila, Hana and Maryum, are at the hospital in Scottsdale, Arizona, where medics continue to fight a breathing problem picked up by the star.
The children flew in last night from around the US as doctors said the future survival of the champ was “uncertain”.
…“Like in the ring, Ali is a fighter on the ward,” said a source.
Reportedly there were discussions about whether transporting Ali to another area of the hospital would be beneficial, however doctors reportedly decided that the move could be “deadly” and the idea was shelved.
Only time will tell if he manages to pull through or not.
