Laila Ali vs Muhammad Ali
By Gail Nobles
Laila Ali said she was no where near her father because her father‘s the greatest, and she‘s not trying to be like her dad.. Well, I’m on the outside looking in. I agree that her father is the greatest. Still, I see where she could be a lot like her father. Just because she doesn’t want to be like her father doesn’t mean she cannot learn. However, Laila likes to box her way and that’s good. Yet and still, she can look back at the old films of her father and get ideas from the greatest. People get ideas from people everyday when they are doing something. They practice from somebody else’s idea until it becomes their own. Songwriters do it and artists do it. I don’t think that two people are going to do something exactly the same anyway. If they could, it is possible that one of them would find more within their own strength. Also, their may be some things that no one else can do that only one person can do. The gift may have been given to only that one person through God. Consider Bruce Lee. He was a teacher, and still, no one can do martial arts quiet the way he did. I’m not saying that someone cannot come along later one day and do better than him. I can see that Laila doesn’t like all that shuffling and jumping around in boxing. It probably would make her more tired. It would be tiresome to me, but I think I would use it sometimes if not constant. It would all depend on how I would have to fight and the person I was going up against. If I had to fight Laila Ali, I would definitely jump around some with her to keep from getting hit. Sooner or later, I would have to be brave enough to step to her and jab. I couldn’t dance forever. I would certainly look out for those hard punches. Girls are afraid of Laila because she has hard and strong force behind the fists and arms. They hurt. Some fear is good, but it’s not good to have the kind of fear to stop you from striking back completely. Laila has mentioned that some of her opponents turn their backs. They turn their backs because they don’t want to face Laila instead of punching her back just as hard as she punches. To tell you the truth, I wouldn’t want none of her punches either. However, I wouldn’t want to run or just stand there. No doubt, I would loose, but I would go out loosing putting forth an effort. I Believe Laila Loves Her Father By Gail Nobles June 13, 2009 Believe that Laila Ali loves her father very much. I believe Mr. Muhammad Ali loves Laila. Laila's father probably tried to tell her some things to help her in life, and he didn't want anything to happen to her that might have happened to him. Like all of us, we sometimes have to take chances and find our own way in life. We don't always listen. Once we find our own way, we understand what our parents were trying to say. We have to see for ourselves. Sometimes parents are not always right. What may have happened to them may not always happen to their children. Laila has been through a lot, but thanks to God she turned out alright. Sister, brother, mother, and father may not always be with you, but when you look back, you see how far you have come. God was there all of the time. He was there to fill in the empty space. We cannot do it all alone. God helps the parents, and God helps the children. We are all his children, and he loves us. A family that prays together stays together. Having the one above is important. Keep your hand in God's hand.
