Boxing legend Muhammad Ali's condition 'vastly improved'
The condition of boxing legend Muhammad Ali has "vastly
improved" since he was taken to hospital with a mild case
of pneumonia, his spokesman has said.
Bob Gunnell said Ali's doctors hoped to discharge
him soon.
He added that "the Ali family continues to
request privacy and appreciates all of the
prayers and well wishes".
The 72-year-old former three-time heavyweight
champion, who has Parkinson's disease, was taken
to hospital on Saturday.
Mr Gunnell provided no further details.
Ali was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 1984, three
years after his retirement from boxing.
He appeared in public at a ceremony in September
in his hometown of Louisville for the Muhammad
Ali Humanitarian Awards.
