Boxer Laila Ali and her husband, former NFL wide receiver Curtis Conway, are expecting their first child together, an article on People Magazine's web site says.The baby will be the first for Ali and fourth for Conway. The baby's maternal grandfather will be Muhammad Ali.
The 30-year-old Ali has a 24-0 record in the ring, but her boxing career may be over. She hasn't fought in more than a year, wouldn't be able to fight for at least several more months (the only difference between licensing rules for male and female boxers is that females must take a pregnancy test) and has seemed more interested lately in working as an entertainer than a boxer.
Conway was the Bears' first-round draft pick out of USC in 1993, and he spent seven seasons in Chicago. He also spent three years with the Chargers, one with the Jets and one with the 49ers. He retired with 8,230 receiving yards.
