While across the world sports features pay tribute to Muhammad Ali on his 70th
birthday, Veronica Scarisbrick brings you a conversation with our popular 'Latin
Lover ' , Carmelite Father Reginald Foster focusing around the figure of this legendary

Latin in which he described all fifteen rounds of the 1971 Cassius Clay versus Frazier
match .
