If You Even Dream Of Beating Me You Better Wake Up And Apologize

If You Even Dream Of Beating Me You Better Wake Up And Apologize

Muhammad Ali Quote

If you even dream of beating me you better wake up and apologize; Muhammad Ali musing about opponents waking up in a cold sweat to be in an apologetic nightmare.

The Greatest


In his day he was simply known as The Greatest and Muhammad Ali is still billed as the greatest heavyweight boxer of all time.

The Louisville Lip was one of his other monikers and some of his one liners became just as famous as his success in the ring.

"Float like a butterfly and sting like a bee" has probably been re-quoted more than any other of Muhammad Ali's quips but there was never a dull moment when he was around.

Intimidating The Opponent Before Stepping In The Ring


Before each fight Muhammad Ali's expertise in verbal sparring drew the headlines before he even put his gloves on and it became part of his pre-fight persona.

His one liners were legendary and he used this as a psychological tool to great effect to intimidate his opponents before they stepped in the ring.

This Muhammad Ali quote took the intimidation one step further when he declared that "if you even dream of beating me you better wake up and apologize", talk about getting into the subconscious of an opponent!

This quote from Muhammad Ali is one thing but quite apart from that was the intensity in which is was said, it gave it real meaning that added to the destabilizing effect that was meant for each opponent.
