Queen of the ring
Lalila Ali, the daughter of Mohammed Ali, brings true meaning to the boxing legend's phrase "fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee". In her first bout, on December 8, 1999, Ali knocked out April Fowler in the first round and hasn't been beaten since, winning all 24 of her matches.
Not only is she an amazing fighter, Ali has top celebrity status in the US, coming third on Strictly Come Dancing and co-presenting American Gladiators.
