Muhammad Ali has made his final journey through his hometown of Louisville in Kentucky, as thousands of mourners lined the route pumped chanting the former heavyweight champion's name.
He was to be laid to be rest around midday - his headstone inscribed simply "Ali" - in a private graveside ceremony, followed in the afternoon by a grand memorial service attended by more than 15,000 people, including former President Bill Clinton and comedian Billy Crystal.
