Boxing legend Mohammad Ali has been admitted to a hospital in the US after being found unconscious on the floor of his home. Guests who found him rushed him to a hospital after failing to wake him up.

Muhammad Ali was recently hospitalised for a urinary tract infection and returned home a week ago. He is currently undergoing tests to diagnose the cause for his fainting spell and is being taken care for by his wife and daughter.

The boxing great also suffers from Parkinson's disease and was diagnosed with this condition in 1984, three years after his retirement from boxing.
