Muhammad Ali ...Could Someone Please Help w/ Authenticity?

Could someone who knows about Ali's signature please opine on this item? I don't know anything about his autograph. The multiple breaks in the signature (after h, m, m) had me wondering, but it looks like he does that at times. What do you think?

This signature looks to be authentic. I see no issues with the signature,

It looks ok, the only thing I don't like is that it is straight. I have gotten Ali about 7 times, and each signature slants up to the right a bit.

That is very true but there are some exceptions especially with Muhammad Ali. Here is one very close and also close to the date.

Wow-- I followed the image link to that website... I didn't realize such a great resource existed! Well, it certainly doesn't look like the known seceretarials and forgeries listed on that site and it looks very similar to many of the examples posted from that date. I feel pretty good about it, so long as there's someone who knows much than me who knows something I don't know...

Thanks for the help; I'd appreciate any more comments!

Thank you for everyone's input. I think I'm getting the hang of it.

I assume everyone believes these two examples are good? Thanks in advance!

Okay, in addition to the two above, I'm just going to ask for help with one more. Then I'll finally make a decision and buy one. What to do you think of this one and the 2 above it? Thanks a lot
