A new book on the life of legendary boxer Muhammad Ali has unveiled shocking details about his personal life, alleging that he had a voracious s**ual appetite and engaged in s**ual relationships with girls as young as 12.
US author Jonathan Eig dedicates an entire chapter in his book, “Ali – A Life,” to the former heavyweight champion’s numerous affairs and one-night stands, painting a portrait of Ali as a s**ual predator who pursued relationships with women from all walks of life.
Eig asserts that Ali’s “appetite for affection” knew no bounds, leading him to engage in relations with countless girls and women, including his four wives.
The book claims that Ali did not discriminate based on race or age, stating that he was involved with both black and white women, as well as individuals from different age groups.
According to Eig, Ali’s acquaintances were well aware of his proclivities.
Belinda Boyd, Ali’s second wife who later changed her name to Khalilah after converting to Islam, revealed that the boxer had an insatiable love for s** and could be considered a s** addict.
She described Ali’s dark side, stating that he manipulated her to such an extent that she not only arranged hotel rooms for his mistresses but also agreed not to disturb him when he was with other women.
The book further alleges that Ali engaged in physical abuse towards two of his four wives and even raped girls as young as 12.
It also provides a detailed account of the children he allegedly fathered out of wedlock, shedding light on the complex and troubled aspects of his personal life.
Muhammad Ali, known for his controversial and outspoken nature, visited New Zealand in 1979.
He passed away in June 2016 at the age of 74, after battling Parkinson’s disease since 1984.
Despite the revelations about his personal life, Ali remains a highly revered and celebrated sports figure of the 20th century, having won 56 out of his 61 professional fights.
