Crash, bam, boom: 29,000 blows to the head. That’s the number of punches that Muhammad Ali calculated he received to his noggin during the course of his long and illustrious boxing career, according to an AP story published shortly after the 74-year-old former heavyweight champion of the world passed away in June 2016.

Forget what an arm the guy had. Like a rocket with an afterburner. Ali’s final knockout was due to some sort of respiratory distress after battling Parkinson’s Disease for approximately the last 30 years of his life.
