Amazon Screens New Ali Series 'The Greatest,' Donates $125,000 with $100,000 to the Ali Center
LOUISVILLE, Kentucky — Amazon announced $125,000 in donations to two local institutions on November 8 at a special screening of its new series "The Greatest" at the Grand Lyric Theater in Louisville's West End: $100,000 to the Muhammad Ali Center and $25,000 to the Louisville Central Community Center, which operates the theater.
Guests at the screening included Ali's widow, Lonnie Ali, Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg and Kentucky Lieutenant Governor Jacqueline Coleman. The series, created by Ben Watkins, tells the story of the beginning of boxing legend Muhammad Ali's career and will stream on Prime Video.
The screening came a day after the 2026 Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Awards ceremony in Louisville on November 7, where civil rights activist and former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick received the Humanitarian of the Year honor. Amazon said the donations support the Ali Center and the community center's work serving the West End community.
