February 4th in Elvis History

It's February fourth, and on this day in 1973, Elvis Presley met heavyweight boxing champion Muhammad Ali in Las Vegas, where Ali was training for an upcoming title defense. During their meeting, Elvis gifted Ali an ornate custom robe emblazoned with “The People’s Champion” on the back. Ali, touched by the gesture, later reflected that he felt sorry for Elvis, noting how much time he spent secluded indoors. Ali returned the favor by giving Elvis a pair of his own boxing gloves, inscribed with the messages, “You’re the greatest, from the greatest,” and “To Elvis, my main man, from Muhammad Ali.”
