16-year-old grandson of Muhammad Ali is following in the footsteps of his grandfather although in a completely different sport but still has his grandad’s speed.
Biaggio Ali-Walsh is turning heads on the American football field as a three-star running back for Bishop Gorman in Nevada – earning scholarship offers from UNLV and Louisville.
Ali-Walsh was the standout player as Bishop Gorman claimed their sixth straight league championship, scoring 10 touchdowns and running nearly 600 yards from just 49 carries.
The main comparison shown between Ali-Walsh and his grandfather is speed, according to the 16-year-old.
And those sentiments have been echoed by his coach, Sean Manuel, who believes that he is one of the quickest young footballers he has ever seen grace the field.
