Boxing legend Muhammad Ali has been placed on life support as his medical condition continues to worsen, while his family is now rushing to be by his bedside.

The legendary boxer, 74, has been hospitalized at an undisclosed facility since Thursday when he was discovered at his home ‘barely breathing’ according to Radar Online. He has since been dealing with respiratory problems which are further complicated by his Parkinson’s disease.

‘Doctors are telling the family that it likely won’t be long until he passes away,’ said one insider.Another insider reported that his vitals ‘are terrible,’ adding; ‘He needs every bit of fight he’s got left to survive.’

His third wife Veronica Porche also said in an interview on Friday that her two daughters with Ali, Laila and Hana, were on their way to see their father.

‘My daughters have both flown there and I will be hearing from them when they arrive at the hospital,’ Porche told Radar Online.’I can’t comment more than that but I will say it is not so great, I’ll just say that much. He’s a real hero. It’s a sad situation.’

Ali’s second wife, Khalilah, also said that one of her daughters was rushing off to see the boxer in the hospital.
