In a special bonus episode of The Fight Of The Century, 麻豆社 Radio 5 Live's Nihal Arthanayake speaks extensively to hip hop legend Nas.

The Grammy award-winning rapper named LeBron James and Colin Kaepernick as two athletes who continue to carry Muhammad Ali鈥檚 legacy on:

鈥淲hen I look at LeBron James, he鈥檚 very active in things in the community. He has a school, he鈥檚 speaks up when he sees things that are wrong. In his position, that鈥檚 very Ali. He鈥檚 a true champion. I鈥檓 sure lots of people in the limelight are told to stay away from certain topics 鈥� he鈥檚 not that guy 鈥� he鈥檚 the Ali guy.

On Colin Kaepernick: 鈥淗e鈥檚 another Ali. 100%. I know he must feel like, 鈥榟ow are people going this crazy that I鈥檓 protesting police murder and brutality? I鈥檓 trying to fix things by developing awareness 鈥� I鈥檓 on my knees because of the hypocrisy out here, until we fix this hypocrisy and be what America is supposed to be, what it鈥檚 supposed to stand for鈥�. He鈥檚 very Ali.鈥�
