Notably, ‘The Greatest of All Time’ had left such a legacy in the sport of boxing that if someone looks like him can garner huge limelight and it’s even better if it is none other than the legend’s grandson, then it becomes the highlight.

For the uninitiated, former female professional boxer Laila Ali is the daughter of immortal legend Muhammad Ali and her son Curtis Muhammad Conway Jr, who is in his teens, looks exactly like Muhammad Ali in his actual life and recalls the young Cassius Clay.
