Hollywood is in the midst of producing a film on the life of Muhammad Ali, with Will Smith in the lead role and Mykelti Williamson as boxing promoter Don King.
We weren't sure the movie's producers hit all of the casting choices on the nose, so we solicited ideas from Page 2 readers for better candidates.
We've narrowed down your suggestions for five key roles. Now we're asking Page 2 readers to choose among these picks and Hollywood's picks.
Vote at left for whom you think should portray King. Check back Monday when we'll reveal who the winners are.
