“Float like a butterfly, sting like AB.”
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown pays homage to Muhammad Ali Sunday when his team lines up against the New York Jets, the above quote splashed on to some of the best cleats we have seen all season.
Brown himself previewed the epic offerings earlier in the week:

With the news New York cornerback Darrelle Revis is inactive Sunday, Brown should have his usual dominant performance while nobody on the field can cover him.
From the cleats to the touchdown celebrations and whatever else comes with it, Sunday is another day of waiting to see what Brown has up his sleeve.
On his feet, an epic tribute to one of the biggest sporting icons in history.
