Marvin Arrington, Sr. worked with Georgia Senator Leroy Johnson to pave the way for Atlanta to host the return of Muhammed Ali to the ring after his four-year ban from boxing for draft avoidance. Arrington helped put together his first fight after returning to the ring on October 26, 1970, knocking out Jerry Quarry in the third round and marked a triumphant comeback. It was a moment that left an indelible mark in boxing history and was a testament to Arrington’s and Johnson’s unwavering commitment to making a difference. #MuhammadAli #Ali #Boxing
