You'd have to be in a news blackout not to have heard that entertainer/boxer Muhammad Ali just passed away.
Ali was a guest on the later Sonny & Cher Show and after his death last week this reel of his poetry, including the Cher vs. Ali boxing match, was distributed around Facebook. It's from the January 14, 1977 episode.
Billboard.com published a retrospective of Ali that included Cher.
Cher's tweets:
